Collars and road signs Painted Dog Conservation uses catch-and-release techniques and places colored collars on the dogs to demonstrate to local ranchers that the dogs are few in numbers and have convinced many of them to not shoot at the dogs. The reflective collars, combined with signs at key crossing areas, have reduced road collisions by 50%.
Anti-poaching units Painted Dog Conservation has created anti-
poaching units staffed by locals to provide protection, gather data and collect poaching snares.
Snare wire art The snares collected by the anti-poaching units are given to local community artists who turn them into animal sculptures. Through sales of these snares and other crafts they spread the conservation message of the painted dogs both to their own community and internationally.
Monitoring Painted Dog Conservation uses radio collars to collect information about pack movements. This information contributes to their relocation to predator-friendly areas and to expand their range when needed.
Rehabilitation A Painted Dog Conservation rehabilitation facility is available for injured painted dogs until they can be re-released into the wild.
Bush camp Painted Dog Conservation holds a free environmental bush camp for local 6th-grade school children by local guides in hopes of inspiring them in conservation.
Visitors center Painted Dog Conservation's visitor center was completed in 2007. The center offers an education facility including a painted dog viewing platform and an interpretive hall. ==References==
