Radio Activated Guard Box




The RAG box is an "aversive training device." It features a strobe light and two loudspeakers which emit an annoying noise; these are activated when the box detects the signal from a radio collar at short range. The lights and noise scare off the wolf pack.

In the field, the RAG box has thus far proven effective in principle. Cost has, however, proven a hindrance, as multiple RAG boxes are required to cover the perimater on even a relatively small area of pasturage.
