What the track shows

Followed for 2 years and 7 months, from June 2018 to December 2020, across 926 recorded positions.

It ranged between 15°N and 66°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from 11°C to 31°C.

It averaged 53.9 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 5,743 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 91% of them.
