In 2024, we expanded the critical datasets we are delivering to the US and foreign governments and other institutions on endangered species population numbers and distribution. In 2024, WildTrack developed a proof of concept for a novel biodiversity metric to analyze the tracks of small mammals (40% of ecosystem species) using AI, morphometrics, and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK). Samples were taken in 5 sites across South Africa, Botswana and Namibia, and WildTrack demonstrated that small mammal species can be classified by footprints. WildTrack delivered species richness profiles to each habitat, indicating habitat health and other metrics in a cost-effective and non-invasive manner. In Botswana, WildTrack collaborated with the US Army and the Botswana Defence Force (BDF) to curb the illegal wildlife trade which is often used to fund regional conflict. WildTrack implemented machine-learning models to automate the identification of ungulate species and lay the foundation for UAV-based monitoring of trail characteristics. WildTrack supervised 2 PhD students and submitted peer-reviewed papers. In 2024, WildTrack continued to enhance its machine-learning platform to automated track classification. We achieved 90%+ accuracy in discriminating 33 endangered species, completed the development of 60 species algorithms using morphometrics and expanded the WildTrack AI database to 22,000+ images and a user base of 1,600 for its applications. 40566 148044 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 1 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false X 7 5 false false false false false false false true true false false false true true true true true true true true false false NC X Zoe Jewell 9193453690 308 Research Drive Room A301 Durham NC 27708 Zoe Jewell President 50 X X X 62400 0 2640 Sky Alibhai Director 50 X 0 0 0 James Baker Director 1 X 0 0 0 Lorie Durham Director 1 X 0 0 0 Charles Hall Director 1 X 0 0 0 Onyi Nwafor Director 1 X 0 0 0 Joseph Morgan Director 1 X 0 0 0 62400 0 2640 0 false false false 0 237132 237132 0 1221 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 238353 0 0 0 171 171 62400 50647 7479 4274 6483 5262 777 444 5049 4098 605 346 14434 14434 10824 10754 70 3298 1463 1725 110 5452 4435 570 447 47097 46551 322 224 1966 1716 250 9430 9140 185 105 654 654 Non-office supplies & materials 3904 3886 12 6 Dues, subscriptions, licenses, fees 814 652 102 60 Staff training & development 597 399 198 Meals & Refreshments 8956 8870 86 0 0 0 0 181529 148044 26865 6620 157089 31069 101221 295 4108 1948 2981 2160 41611 123706 201976 258156 3501 0 3501 165810 254655 201976 254655 201976 258156 X 56824 -4145 X false false false false false X 132691 120814 163888 199622 237132 854147 0 0 132691 120814 163888 199622 237132 854147 555834 298313 0 0 0 854147 0.34930 0.29820 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false false false false 0 false 0 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 0 0 0 0 0 4108 1948 2160 0 2160 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 false Botswana 0 0 Program Services Region specific research 24000 South Africa 0 0 Program Services Region specific research 54981 0 0 0 0 78981 78981 false false false false false false PART VI, LINE 11B A draft version of the 990 is distributed to the entire Board of Directors for review prior to filing. PART VI, LINE 12C The President and members of the Board of Directors make disclosures to the Secretary of the Board of Directors, who is responsible for determining if an actual conflict of interest exists, and documenting the rationale for the conclusion. The Secretary of the Board of Directors reviews all transactions for which a member of the Board of Directors has an actual conflict of interest and prescribes a course of action to minimize the effect of the conflict of interest on the transaction. At a minimum, members of the Board of Directors with a conflict of interest must be absent from any discussions of relevant transactions. PART VI, LINE 15A The president's compensation is reviewed and decided on by an independent body within the Board of Directors. PART XI, LINE 8 During the fiscal year ended 12/31/24, the organization identified an error related to the omission of a credit card liability that existed as of 12/31/23. The $4,145 liability was not recorded in the 12/31/23 financial statements due to an oversight. In accordance with ASC 250, the organization evaluated the materiality of this error on the prior period's financial statements. Since the impact was immaterial, a restatement of the 12/31/23 financial statements was not necessary. As a result, the organization is disclosing this amount in 2024 as a prior period adjustment.
