The company

Fauna IQ Innovations Inc. builds field tools for trapping and wildlife management.

The company was founded by Stéphane Geissel, who holds a registered trapline on the Côte-Nord. The first Trapline IQ prototype came out of his own logbook: GPS points, a spiral notebook, and an annual report filled in by hand every spring.

The tools start from what actually happens on a line. Every feature is checked with other trappers before it gets built, and the app speaks the trade’s vocabulary — a trap is set, then checked, and eventually it catches something.

Trapline IQ is the first of four planned tools. The ones that follow share the same account, the same map and the same offline engine, because a trapper is usually also a hunter, and nobody wants four passwords.
