ABSTRACT

Global Space-based tracking technology using low-cost miniature tags is now delivering data on fine-scale
animal movement at near-global scale. Linked with remotely sensed environmental data, this offers a biological lens on habitat integrity and connectivity for conservation and human health; a global network
of animal sentinels of environmental change.
