Why are penguins tracked?Updated 6 months ago

“We track penguins mainly to identify their feeding routes and location of food sources in the ocean. That information allows us to detect overlaps with human activities and implement conservation tools, such as the creation of protected areas or the elaboration of management plans. Devices can also track their diving behavior and register the depth, temperature of the water, salinity, etc.” - Global Penguin Society
