Deer Recovery

Deer Recovery is only available on private property in Virginia

Per Virginia Code 4VAC15-20-240 It shall be unlawful for any person to hunt or assist another to hunt on the same calendar day on a property after having used a drone or unmanned aircraft to locate or surveil any wild animal during any open season.

This means if I launch the drone all hunting has to cease until the next calendar day. If I find your deer wounded and has not expired, I will return within 24 hrs to check the status of the deer for a fee of $75. Hunting would also have to cease for the day of the return trip also.

The deer recovery process begins by gathering information about the deer’s last known location, shot placement, and other factors. With this information, I plan the search and deploy my drone to the area. This drone detects heat signatures, helping to locate deer even in difficult terrains and conditions. I can also equip the drone with a searchlight for nighttime searches. The real-time imagery guides me to the deer’s exact location, ensuring a quick and efficient recovery.
