Tracking the movement of leatherbacks in the Atlantic

Scientists estimate that about 50,000 leatherback turtles - a Critically Endangered species - are caught each year as bycatch in fisheries longlines.

WWF and its partners are tracking leatherback turtles in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. You can follow their ocean voyages and track their movements and dives with the weekly reports and maps.
