About Animal Tracker

With Animal Tracker, you can follow the movements of wild animals all over the world that are being tracked in near-real time! These movements are collected by tiny GPS tags carried by the animals and are stored at Movebank, a free online infrastructure used by hundreds of researchers to manage, share, analyze, and archive animal movement data.

You can easily participate in our scientific research projects: Upload your real-life observations and photos of our tagged animals to Animal Tracker.

Your observations are crucial for our scientists! We can determine the positions of the tagged animals but we are lacking behavioral observations - we can interpret our data much better with your additional observations.

Calm down, grumpy reviewers. This is a great app.

It takes time to tag the animals. What are you doing to help with that effort? Birds happen to be the most interesting because they often travel great distances to surprising locations. I love AnimalTracker because I learned about a bald eagle named Freedom who was born in captivity near me in NC and now flies 100s of miles up to nearly Canada. I’ve seen his parents who are still in a zoo. How cool. Suggestion: Find a favorite bird, save the bird as a favorite and watch his/her movements. Find a child to share your interest. Great app, great fun. Thank you to all the people who made and support this educational and fun app.

Can’t find Osprey Beacon currently in Cuba

...just to let you know that I’m so sorry that I installed the latest iPhone update for the this app tracker app... it’s changed completely and certainly not user friendly at all... and to top it all there is no record of our Osprey Beacon currently in Cuba 😫 I’m so upset about this update... so please be wary of the latest update is all I can say for now... 😢

No search function.

Without a search function there is no way to add birds that can be seen in the Android version of AnimalTracker . That makes it pretty much useless to IOS users.

Since I wrote this review the search function has been added and AnimalTracker is now useful again.

Update doesn’t work

Since AnimalTracker was updated I have lost ALL my favorites and see NO way to even find them :-(

By Dude@atank

This is so freakin' stupid

I doesn't work. I looked up white tail deer, but nothing came up. Only works for birds, not all wildlife. Poor scientist. They have to use this piece of crap. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

By Nanakitteh

Meh

It has potential but only if they expand the species list by a lot. Currently it just follows about twenty or so birds such as Ospreys, vultures and herons. I would like to see sea creatures (whales! Sharks!) and land creatures ( bears, wildebeest and such) added.
Also the maps are really slow to load so you see the bird tracks moving around with no reference point until the map finally loads.

Impossible tomuse

Navigation is terrible. I have tried this on my iPhone 5, for which it is supposedly optimized, and on my iPad. It doesn't work on either. I tried the tutorial and couldn't get out of it. Even closing AnimalTracker and reopening it didn't get me out. I'm dumping it. I'll try it again in a year, maybe.
