Abstract
During the last decade, AI has become the most important field for the researchers to provide a solutions for real world’s challenges, resulting in the new emerged field of deep learning which make the system more efficient and optimized .This paper discusses the expansion of deep learning towards the welfare of animal life considering ways to save them and monitoring their count and health conditions. Techniques like image classification and object detection can provide plethora of information that can assist in conducting study on various aspects by identifying and classifying these animal species from thousands of images captured by drones or cameras which could be very strenuous and tedious to be done by humans.
