Moscovium´s tracking route
November 11, 2024
After leaving Golfo Nuevo, Moscovium traveled southeast for 390 kilometers (242 miles) until she reached the continental slope. She then changed her direction and traveled north until she reached the latitude of Golfo Nuevo. She has stayed in this area with abundant food.

During these last weeks of tracking, Moscovium and her calf traveled around most of the area of Golfo Nuevo, from the mouth of the gulf to the coast close to Puerto Madryn, where the follow-up team sighted her for the last time, on October 29th. Moscovium began her migratory travels on November 2, 45 days after she was tagged.

Moscovium and her calf traveled to the western sector of the gulf after being tagged. At first they utilized shallow coastal areas, and then progressed to deeper waters in which both mother and calf have been diving for over 10 minutes, as recorded by the follow-up team.
