Have you ever wondered how do we obtain accurate estimations of animal populations in the wild? Monitoring biodiversity is extremely important – it allows us to support and protect the beautiful wildlife of our planet. Scientists have discovered a clever way to do that using… dung beetles! But they need our help to make the process of collecting them efficient.

This is why we created Fab:re – a light, affordable and smart trap for dung beetles. We want scientists to be able to collect larger and better beetle samples, making their research more accurate.
