Weak links installed on radio collars are devices designed to protect animals from entanglement during animal studies and allow remote retrieval of the collar after study. We tested a latex weak link on collars used to track eastern grey kangaroos and found that it was able to successfully achieve both functions on all animals. Future researchers can use weak links of similar design to provide good welfare for animals involved in research. Photograph by Tian Chen.
