Thermal hunting, also known as thermal imaging hunting, is a method of hunting that utilizes thermal imaging technology to detect and locate animals in the dark or low-light conditions. Thermal imaging cameras detect the heat emitted by objects, including animals, allowing hunters to see their heat signatures even in complete darkness. This technology is particularly useful for nocturnal or low-visibility hunting situations. Hunters use thermal imaging scopes, monoculars, or mounted thermal cameras to scan the environment for the heat signatures of animals. The ability to detect body heat helps hunters locate and identify animals in the dark, providing an advantage in terms of stealth and precision. Thermal hunting is employed in various hunting scenarios, including predator hunting, hog hunting, and nocturnal game observation.
