Sedna & Zahara update

It's been a while since I had time to update on the 'progress' of our GPS tagged animals. Zahara, our Loggerhead turtle has entered the Gulf of Aden, and is almost directly south of the Yemen city of Al Mukalla. Note the staggering statistic of over 8000km travelled in 6 months on the map below. Not bad for a baby turtle.

There has however been no update on Sedna, our shearwater since boxing day. Most likely this is due to a failing of the gps tracker, though I'll email the folks at Seaturtle.org to see if they have any further information. Most likely cause is probably the GPS tracker sinking, which means it's most probably come off in some kind of way.
