Tracking sea turtles with GPS data!

An Earth focused content portal for BBC Worldwide

Elephants, whales, and polar bears aren’t twittering their whereabouts – yet. But fear not, they’ve been given the next best thing: GPS tracking tags. And now you can track them online, thanks to the new loveearth.com site, made with tender loving care by POKE and the BBC Worldwide teams. The site is currently live in Europe, and will roll out early next year in the U.S.

In a nutshell, visitors can follow the migratory lives of some of the species featured in BBC Worldwide and Greenlight Media’s film, “Earth”. Drop by the site to see where Nuka the polar bear is hanging out on Google Maps, or follow a humpback whale as it makes its 4,000-mile trip from the equator to the Antarctic.

Of course, there’s more to the site than tracking.

To connect you even more with the experience, zoologists and environmentalists are documenting their travels and studies via blogs. This gives you the ability to comment and ask questions about their work and the animals they’re involved with.

You can also drop by the Reading Room for Animal Facts, Essays, and Quick Guides; visit the Studio for videos and photo galleries; or learn how to give back to mother earth and help save some endangered species. There’s a bucket load more—check it out.
