The smart animal trap market is mainly driven by the rise in human–wildlife conflicts (HWCs) and the rapid increase in the population of some wildlife species. In contrast, high deployment costs and regulatory Constraints hinder the market growth. The Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife in the US, all traps set in organized towns—apart from killer-type traps, drowning sets, and under-ice drowning sets—must be set for every day. In organized towns, any killer-type trap or drowning set, apart from under-ice ones, needs maintenance at least once every three calendar days. However, if the drowning set is within a half-mile of the town’s built-up area, it must be checked every 24 hours. Except for killer-type traps, drowning sets, and under-ice drowning sets, all traps placed in unorganized communities require daily maintenance. In unorganized communities, each killer-type trap or drowning set—apart from under-ice drowning sets—must be handled at least once every five calendar days. Electronic trap notification systems cannot replace physical inspections. The rise in human wildlife conflicts and rapid increase in population of several wildlife species is contributing to the growth of the global smart animal trap market. Moreover, need for human life protection and high quality crops and integration of advanced connectivity and computing technologies are expected to propel the market growth over the forecast period.
