Protecting wildlife
Thousands of animals— birds, fish and marine and land mammals—are fitted with miniaturized Argos transmitters and tracked worldwide. Along with data collected from sensors, position information allows biologists to better understand animals' behaviour: feeding strategies, breeding and how they adapt to their environment. Such observations provide the basis for conservation measures aimed at helping many endangered species. In addition to its ecological value, this work helps us to learn more about our environment's biodiversity and natural resources.
