Aside from radio telemetry, other forms of telemetry used to track the movements of a species includes passive integrated transponders (PIT), acoustic telemetry, and biologgers.[1]
I plan on elaborating on the different technologies used for animal migration tracking or animal tracking in general. There are several different forms of telemetry and satellite tracking that could be discussed. I could also elaborate on the history of animal tracking, as well as the benefits that this technology has for the future of conservation.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
Under Radio Tracking:
Another form of radio tracking that can be utilized, especially in the case of small bird migration, is the use of geolocation loggers or "geologgers". [2] This technology utilizes a light sensor that tracks the light-level data during regular intervals in order to determine a location based on the length of the day and the time of solar noon.[2] While there are benefits and challenges with using this method of tracking, it is one of the only practical means of tracking small birds over long distances during migration.[2]
