FAQ's

Why are penguins being tracked?

• “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

How are penguins being tracked?

• “We use tracking devices that use different technology depending on what information we need to collect. Satellite devices allow us to track penguins online and know their position at all times. We do not need to recover the device to obtain the information. On the other hand, devices with GPS technology have to be recovered to obtain the information and we do not know where the penguin is during the trip.” - Global Penguin Society

Does tracking harm the penguins?

• “We follow international protocols to deploy tracking devices on penguins. We also use materials that proved to be safe for penguins. Devices are attached to the lower back, where they do not affect the diving or swimming behavior. We use special tapes to attach the devices to the feathers and not to the skin.” - Global Penguin Society
