GEOLOUNGE is an informational and interesting website. It has information about physical geography, human geography, maps, and more. Under the physical geography tab, they have tabs for biogeography and climatology. After learning about both biogeography and climatology in our class, I was intrigued by the different articles that I found. I wanted to share this article, \u201cThese Wolves in Minnesota are Very Very Territorial\u201d that is posted on their site because it relates to our class. The article discusses how researches have used GPA collars to track the movements of 7 wolves at Voyageurs National Park in Minnesota. The data that was collected on the wolves locations is being used to understand pack boundaries and for the Project\u2019s predation research. The screenshots I have included below show the travel paths for each of the wolves. The travel paths show how each pack adheres to territories with little overlap with other packs in the area. I thought GPS tracking of the wolves is an interesting concept and could be used to track more animals and possibly provide insights about animals travel habits which could be used to make better protected conservation areas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After reading this article, I clicked on a related link: \u201cUsing Remote Sensing for Mapping and Counting Animals.\u201d This took me to GISLOUNGE, which is also another interesting and informational site, related to GOELOUNGE.\u00a0<\/span>\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
