A tiny, GPS tracker is being used by beekeepers, in a bid to recover stolen hives. 

The Hive Guardian is hidden inside a hive, and works by sending out an alert when it's moved. 

It's one of three winners of AgriFutures' inaugural Bee Tech Challenge.

Rural Reporter Rhiannon Soliman-Marron spoke to HiveKeepers Chief Executive Simon Mildren, to find out more about the invention.
