Yes. Thermal sensors read heat, not light, so the Hound shows animals the same way at noon as at midnight. Daytime images can look flatter on hot afternoons when rocks and ground warm up close to body temperature, but a coyote or hog bedded in shade still stands out.
We don't have a published range for the Hound yet. How far any thermal can detect and identify depends on sensor resolution, lens size and conditions like humidity and rain. A 15mm lens trades distance for a wider view, so it suits scanning fields and timber edges more than picking out animals far off.
For most night hunters it is. Having the rangefinder in the same unit means you find the heat signature and get a distance without switching devices or losing the animal. On the Hound the LRF is built in, so you range from the same view you scan with.
