Scent Detection Ireland Ltd

Scent Detection Ireland conducts carcass detection surveys across Ireland, supporting wind farm collision monitoring and ecological impact assessment. The company uses trained detection dogs and LANTRA certified handlers to improve carcass detection rates, helping ensure accurate, defensible data for planning and regulatory compliance. Services include collision monitoring on wind farms, where specially selected dogs identify and locate birds and bats that have struck a turbine; efficiency trials to evaluate how effectively handler and dog teams find carcasses on a particular site; and scavenger trials to assess the speed of predation on carcasses and gather information on predation rates for statistical analysis of mortality. Survey reporting includes GIS maps showing ground covered, environmental conditions, and the number and species of carcasses found. The company serves ecologists and supports collision monitoring and ecological impact assessment.
