An example remote monitoring device may comprise: a receptacle or platform for receiving a monitored load, the receptacle or platform configured with one or more load cells for measuring the monitored load; a transmitter; and a microcontroller configured with a processor; wherein the processor is programmed to: measure, with the one or more load cells, an initial mass of the monitored load; periodically measure, with the one or more load cells, a current mass of the monitored load; and transmit, with the transmitter, a notification signal once a predetermined mass difference between the initial mass and the current mass is reached. An example method for remote monitoring of animals or insects is also disclosed.
