What the track shows

Followed for 1 year and 11 months, from July 2021 to May 2023, across 103 recorded positions.

It ranged between 19°N and 45°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

Remarkably, it stayed inside a narrow thermal band the whole time, between 22°C and 28°C.

It averaged 16.8 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 739 km from its first, so the track we have is a one-way journey rather than a closed loop.

Of the 320 species followed here, this animal covered more ground than 62% of them.
