DJI Matrice 4T Deer Recovery & Lost Animal Recovery Kit

Find wounded deer faster. Recover lost dogs. Locate hogs before they destroy another field.

The DJI Matrice 4T Deer & Wildlife Recovery Kit is built for deer recovery operators, tracking dog teams, hog control professionals, ranchers, wildlife services, and animal recovery organizations that need to find animals quickly when every minute matters.

When an animal disappears into thick brush, palmettos, timber, swamp edges, CRP fields, or nighttime darkness, ground searches become slow and uncertain. The Matrice 4T allows operators to scan large areas from the air, detect heat signatures in real time, and direct recovery teams to the animal's exact location.

Whether you're recovering a wounded whitetail after a shot, locating a missing hunting dog, tracking escaped livestock, searching for a lost pet, or identifying hog activity after dark, the Matrice 4T helps cover more ground with fewer people and dramatically increases recovery success rates.

The 640x512 thermal sensor detects heat signatures that are invisible to the naked eye. The 112x hybrid zoom helps confirm species and condition from a safe distance. The integrated laser rangefinder provides precise GPS coordinates so recovery teams know exactly where to go.

Why Thermal Changes Everything

Most recovery efforts fail because the search starts too late, covers too much ground, or relies entirely on people walking through thick terrain. Thermal imaging changes the equation.

The Matrice 4T can scan fields, timber lines, marshes, creek beds, palmetto flats, agricultural land, and wooded property in a fraction of the time required by ground teams. Instead of hoping to cross a trail, operators can identify heat signatures from the air and immediately focus recovery efforts where they matter most.

For deer recovery operators, that can mean locating a wounded animal before predators or weather destroy evidence. For lost pet recovery teams, it can mean finding an animal before sunrise. For hog control operators, it can mean locating entire sounders before they move off the property.

Built Around Thermal Recovery Missions

The Matrice 4T combines five sensors on a single aircraft, allowing operators to search, identify, verify, and navigate directly to animals from one platform.

• 640x512 Thermal Camera: Detect heat signatures hidden by darkness, brush, grass, and light canopy.
• 48MP Wide Camera: Maintain situational awareness across large search areas.
• 3x Medium Telephoto: Bridge the gap between thermal detection and identification.
• 7x Telephoto Camera: Up to 112x hybrid zoom for confirming species and condition from a distance.
• Laser Rangefinder: Capture GPS coordinates up to 1,800 meters away.

Find Animals Faster After Dark

Most recovery calls happen at night. That's where the Matrice 4T excels.

Whether you're searching for a wounded deer after legal shooting hours, locating escaped livestock, recovering a missing dog, or tracking hog movement after sunset, thermal imaging allows you to continue searching when traditional optics become ineffective.

The included DJI AL1 Spotlight provides additional illumination when operators need visual confirmation or ground teams need assistance approaching a recovery location.

Optional Field Monitor Upgrade

The optional 21.5 inch field monitor allows guides, property owners, recovery teams, and observers to watch the live drone feed without crowding around the pilot.

This is particularly useful during deer recovery operations when landowners, hunters, dog handlers, and spotters all need visibility into the search.

Why Recovery Operators Are Choosing The Matrice 4T

The Matrice 4T combines thermal detection, long-range zoom, laser coordinate capture, AI-assisted tracking, and rapid deployment into a compact folding platform.

For operators who recover deer, locate missing animals, monitor livestock, or control invasive species, it provides capabilities that previously required much larger and more expensive systems.

Specifications

Procurement

Net 30 terms are available for qualified organizations and agencies. We accept purchase orders and provide quotes for procurement departments, wildlife agencies, municipalities, and organizations.

Most kits ship within 5 to 7 business days.

Activation And Coverage

This is an unused, unflown aircraft that receives universal region-free activation before shipment. The aircraft binds directly to your DJI account and operates like any other Matrice 4T.

Because it is activated prior to resale, it is not eligible for DJI Enterprise Care or DJI's U.S. manufacturer warranty. DJI can still service these units through their paid repair program. Optional CPS Drone Protection is available at checkout.

Real People, Real Support

We've helped deer recovery operators, wildlife teams, landowners, ranchers, and public safety professionals deploy thermal drone technology since 2017.
