What the track shows

Followed for 1 year and 3 months, from July 1998 to October 1999, across 336 recorded positions.

It ranged between 32°N and 51°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from 1°C to 23°C.

It averaged 28 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 940 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 64% of them.
