What the track shows

Followed for 2 years and 9 months, from April 2011 to January 2014, across 296 recorded positions.

It ranged between 48°N and 75°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from 5°C to 20°C.

It averaged 24.3 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 1,052 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 82% of them.
