Device and method for distributing a vaccine for wild animals

Abstract

The subject of the application is a device for distributing vaccine for wild animals, comprising a vaccine reservoir, a feeder, and a control module. It comprises a land vehicle, preferably an off-road vehicle, on which a vaccine reservoir (2) is located. The tapered bottom of the vaccine reservoir (2) has an opening, beneath which a vaccine feeder (3) is located, a disc-type feeder having a rotating disc (4) driven by a motor (5), preferably a stepper motor, connected to a control module (6). An odor sensor is connected to the control module (6). The method for distributing vaccine for wild animals involves designating a route for the land vehicle to ensure precise distribution of the vaccine throughout the vaccination area. The land vehicle travels along this route, and during the journey, the odor sensor collects odor data.If an odor corresponding to a pre-defined odor pattern of wild animals being vaccinated is detected, the control module (6) activates the vaccine feeder (3).
