Why am I surprised. The military as well as some special private companies have heat seeking equipment and can detect a dear in the forest. Where is this equipment? Same place as almost everything that could be used is. We have a political system built of the dumbest of the dumb, and don't expect anything important to be added to the search and rescue teams. Too busy filling their pockets to do anything meaningful.
Right now I'm recalling all of those buses in New Orleans during Katrina.
