Wildlife Computers offers an extensive collection of back and head mount glue-on tags for pinniped research. Talk to us about your requirements to find the right package for your project. Pinniped tags are supplied with a layer of Peel Ply for easy adhering. Peel Ply is a thin polyester sheet attached to the base of the tag that creates a clean, well-prepared surface ready for attachment. Once Peel Ply is removed, it reveals a uniformly-textured surface on the base of the tag that maximizes the bonding of the epoxy used for gluing the tag onto the animal.

Life estimates rely on battery variability, temperature, power settings, features utilized, etc. Life estimates are calculated using manufacturers’ specifications and assumes 250 transmissions per day and, where applicable, 24 Fastloc® acquisitions per day.
Most SPLASH tags come in a 10 (does not contain Fastloc) or BF (does not contain depth) version. Ask your technical sales consultant which tag best meets your research goals.
