What the track shows

Followed for 4 months, from September 2006 to December 2006, across 114 recorded positions.

It ranged between 56°N and 68°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from -12°C to 3°C.

It averaged 79.5 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 7,062 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 56% of them.
