What the track shows

Followed for 8 months, from May 2019 to January 2020, across 110 recorded positions.

It ranged between 17°N and 38°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from 16°C to 28°C.

It averaged 96.1 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 519 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 81% of them.
