New elephant seal migration record!

An adult female elephant seal from Año Nuevo, currently at sea,
has traveled farther west than any other seal we have tracked
over the past two decades.  She is over 5,300 kilometers from
home and just 1,700 kilometers from Russia!  (She traveled well
beyond the international date line to 173-degrees east).

Click here to track her in real-time to see if she ventures even
farther before heading home for the breeding season this winter.

Elephant seals provide data to IOOS

The elephant seals at Ano Nuevo are collecting oceanographic
information that is fed into a much larger multi-platform observing
network called IOOS (Integrated Ocean Observing System).

mammals are collecting data for IOOS.
