Titanium´s tracking route

  • At present Titanium is over the continental slope and continues traveling slowly northwards, bordering the Argentine continental shelf. In this area there is an upwelling of the cold bottom waters which favor the primary productivity and multiplication of the prey on which these whales feed.

  • During their stay inside the gulf, Titanium and her calf traveled predominantly within the coastal areas of Golfo Nuevo. They began their migratory travels towards the continental slope on October 25th, after having been tracked for 45 days.

  • A month after being tagged, Titanium and her calf continue traveling in coastal areas of Golfo Nuevo, utilizing predominantly the northern, western and southwestern sectors of the breeding area.
