What the track shows

Followed for 2 years and 6 months, from January 2015 to July 2017, across 283 recorded positions.

It ranged between 31°N and 48°N, never leaving the northern hemisphere.

The water and air it moved through ran from 1°C to 20°C.

It averaged 17.5 km a day, every day, across the whole tracking period.

Its last fix was 2,958 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 71% of them.
