Where The Animals Go: Tracking Wildlife with Technology in 50 Maps and Graphics

James Cheshire,Oliver Uberti

A pioneering book that uses big data to map the movements of 50 different animals on land, sea and sky, from ants to humpback whales, bats to the great white shark

For thousands of years, tracking animals meant following footprints. Now satellites, drones, camera traps, cellphone networks, apps and accelerometers allow us to see the natural world like never before. Geographer James Cheshire and designer Oliver Uberti take you to the forefront of this animal-tracking revolution. Meet the scientists gathering wild data - from seals mapping the sea to baboons making decisions, from birds dodging tornadoes to jaguars taking selfies. Join the journeys of sharks, elephants, bumblebees, snowy owls, and a wolf looking for love. Find an armchair, cancel your plans and go where the animals go.
