That's what I was thinking.
Tracking wildlife is too much work because they don't voluntarily carry electronic tracking devices, and it often requires tranquiliztion or being subdued in some other way beforehand.
Plus the small number that do participate don't have credit card numbers and other financially exploitable data in their devices like most of the humans do.
