What the track shows

Followed for 1 year and 8 months, from June 2017 to February 2019, across 564 recorded positions.

It ranged between 49°N and 61°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from -4°C to 10°C.

It averaged 22.9 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 2,177 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 67% of them.
