European Tracking Network
@aquatictracking.bsky.social
Pan-European initiative to integrate all aquatic animal tracking | we love telemetry, data & partnership | tracking & networking to improve aquatic life 🐟🐠🦈
News! The European Tracking Network just logged its 1,000,000,000th detection! 🎉🐟
Since GPS doesn’t work underwater, telemetry is a key to help us understanding fish movements, essential for conservation and management.
Huge thanks to everyone uploading data - great teamwork! 🌊

🚀 Big win for marine tracking!
TwinTrack took 🥇 at #BlueCloudHackathon2025 with “The Digital Twin of the Ocean meets Animal Movement” — predicting fish movements in the North Sea using skate tracks + env data 🌊
Proud moment for the tracking community & a big step for smarter ocean management 🌍✨

Recently, 124 Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRAs) were delineated for the European Atlantic 🦈
This effort had data contributions from 214 researchers, including ETN members! Many of these ISRAs were partially/ompletely supported with telemetry data, underscoring the importance of this information.

Happy World Lake Day!
We post a lot of marine telemetry research, but did you know that a lot is done in lakes too?

Hello friends!
The fieldwork and holiday season kept us a little quiet over here, but we’re back!
Here's a meme (we hope you don’t relate to) until we get things going again 🐠

👋 Hey there! While field season has kept us busy, happy, and (probably) wet… here are some upcoming conferences to keep you indoors, networking, and dry:
