Tracking collars are collars used as a radio beacon to track animal migration for research. Some pet owners use these collars for GPS tracking and geofencing of their pets.

A collar used on animals to study their behaviors indepth. The collars were invented in 2014 by Christopher Wilmers and eco-physiologist Terrie Williams. The collars are able to give the GPS location of the animal wearing it as well as the speed and direction the animal moves the whole time it is wearing the collar. The collar also gives information on what types of movements the animal has made such as jumping, or just standing still. A company by the name of PetPace made a SMART collar for dogs which owners and vets can use to know when the dog is sick and how its body is reacting to its treatment.
