I am thinking maybe they could apply
this approach used on the US-Mexico border to guarding the coast.
Anyone with an Internet connection can now help to patrol the 1,254-mile frontier through a network of webcams set up to allow the public to monitor suspicious activity. Once logged in, the volunteers spend hours studying the landscape and are encouraged to email authorities when they see anyone on foot, in vehicles or aboard boats heading towards US territory from Mexico.
And apparently you can do it from the corner bar, no matter how far away the corner is.
"We had folks send an email saying, in good Australian fashion, 'Hey mate, we've been watching your border for you from the pub in Australia'"
Let's hope the next innovation isn't to couple this idea to
hunting via the Internet.
