Thank you all who made the Toolkit possible! Built on the work of many, we want to continue the collaborative journey with all working to conserve marine megafauna. Explore, tell us what works, suggest improvements, contribute. We can only achieve biodiversity conservation targets working together.

Tracking data from 48 long-distance pelagic #seabird species, shared by >100 collaborators, were analysed to reveal the consistent & repeatable #migratory routes, including a circumpolar navigation of the Southern Ocean & transhemispheric ‘figures of 8’ in the Pacific & Atlantic oceans
