Advancing Wildlife Science

[Lotek @LotekWireless]

We don’t build technology for this year’s field season.🌍
We build it for the next generation.

For the scientists who haven’t started university yet.

For the conservationists still drawing wildlife at the kitchen table.

For the kids who will inherit the data we collect today.

If we do our job well, there will still be animals to track when it’s their turn.

That’s the mission.
For wildlife.
For science.
For tomorrow.

Serious question:
If you asked your child what you do for work…
What would they draw?
This is what a 10-year-old thinks Lotek does.
And honestly — he’s right.
Drop a 🐾 if you work in conservation.
Drop a 🎨 if you’ve ever been reminded why you do what you do.
Let’s hear it.

Lotek is at the ACT Network Meeting (Mar 30–31) at the Heldrich Hotel, New Brunswick, NJ!

Stop by the foyer outside the Merchant Amphitheatre to meet our marine telemetry specialist Justine and chat all things ORCA & WAVE 💦

Let’s talk acoustic, satellite, archival & VHF tags—see you there!

🦈💦 University of Miami's Shark Research & Conservation Lab have been busy tagging tiger sharks with our #KiwiSat Argos fin tags — revealing where these ocean predators really roam. Each time a fin breaks the surface, a new piece of their journey comes to light. 📍✨

You’ve heard of 007… but have you met 004? 😎🦃

004, a wild turkey hen tagged in 2024, has reunited with her old crew — 083 & 122! They had split up, but new evidence via #PinPointIridium GPS tags and trail camera footage show the trio is back together and roaming again.

Stay alert for these feeder fiends!

Hello again to all those glued to Amur Watch !
The Amur Falcons are rewriting the limits of endurance. From the forests of Manipur, three satellite-tagged travellers Apapang, Alang and Ahu have taken the world by storm. Here is the latest update from their epic journey. You will notice Apapang and Alang have crossed into Kenya... while Ahu continues to stay at the northern tip of Somalia. They are likely to stopover at Tsavo National Park in Kenya

Apapang (Orange tag)
The hero of the season.
6,100 km in 6 days 8 hours nonstop.
A single unbroken arc across continents.

Alang (Yellow tag)
The youngest with incredible grit.
5,600 km in 6 days 14 hours, including a night halt in Telangana and a 3-hour breather in Maharashtra before powering towards the Arabian Sea.

Ahu (Red tag)
steady and strong.
5,100 km in 5 days 14 hours, with a night pause in western Bangladesh before joining the great transoceanic push. (Her distance is lower because she took a more northerly and relatively shorter route to Somalia.)

Together, they embody the raw beauty of migration, precision, instinct, wind, stamina, and courage.
What a season ! What a journey ! As told by @SureshWII @wii_india to @supriyasahuias #AmurFalconMigration

[Supriya Sahu IAS @supriyasahuias]

Here is an update - All three satellite-tagged Amur Falcons Apapang (male), Alang (young female) and Ahu (female) are now undertaking their daring Arabian Sea crossing. Apapang has already flown nonstop for 76 hours, covering 3100 km at an average of 1000 km per day, aided by strong easterly tailwinds. From here, the journey becomes even more extraordinary as they head towards Somalia on their epic 3000 km oceanic flight @sureshwii @wii_india #Amurfalcons

📡 #MCFT2 tags are helping track humpbacks in Brazil! 🐳

@FaunaLabs' Dave Haas has designed bio-sensors that, combined with #MCFT2 VHF tags, are suction-cupped to whales to collect short-term health & behavior data. Recovered via VHF, they offer new insights. 💡

Great discussions at the International Wildlife Congress workshop in Norway! Exciting to see how researchers envision the future role of telemetry in advancing wildlife research.

🦃 How many poults (baby turkeys) can you spot?

This 🇨🇦 Thanksgiving, we’re celebrating wild turkeys — & the innovative science helping protect them.

Using #PinPointIridium GPS transmitters, Wisconsin DNR biologists are tracking: 📍 Nesting sites, 🪺Brood survival & 🌙Daily movements.

Egyptian Nightjars are residents in the Dead Sea region, showing a high year-round roost fidelity !
in a joint study by @TelAvivUni and the Israeli Nature and Parks Authority, several Egyptian Nightjars were fitted with @LotekWireless GPS tags for (almost) a whole year.

#Lotek is at the Joint Meeting of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists (JMIH) this week in Saint Paul, Minnesota! Come find us in Ballroom A-B at the Saint Paul RiverCentre until July 13, 2025. We’ve got #ORCA on display and are ready to chat all things telemetry. Stop by the booth to connect with Justine and enter our draw to WIN a Lotek dry-bag.

[Birds Canada - Ontario Region @BirdsCanada_ON]

Our Ontario #easternwhippoorwill team made up of @BirdsCanada biologists and @WaterlooSci MSc students are having a very successful season!

Check out the nest that the team found a few days ago 🥚, and the female that was fitted with a @LotekWireless nanotag last night 🌙!
