Description
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. Therefore: become a scientist, become an Animal Tracker!

Great app! My points of criticism: - list of species should be searchable and also match on languages other than the UI display language - app language should be freely configurable, independent of Android's default language - map view should provide a time slider, so I can't only track the movements of an individual selected animal, but also be able to see all tracked animals within a certain timeframe/area - "Visit our website" in Settings > About is a 404

So I have played I mean it is awesome, but I don't know if I can make it to where I can be able to track my own animals

Loaded it on my phone, set up an account. But no explanation of what to do next. I thought it was going to allow me to input what I saw with my own animals and their reactions to earthquakes, which we have been having several for the past few days. Maybe after one loads the app a description of what they can do next. If it's going to cost me money to add my input, then I'll take it off my phone! Do any of the developers read these and answer them? If not than why create it! I uninstalled it!

App would be useful if it provided up-to-date info on most of the species. E.g. Waterfowl & birds of prey - has little to no info on the migration?????????? As an active birder App would be great if it provided current information- not year old info.

I'd like to know more about migration routes and the app isn't convenient for this, unless you know about species and that the app has data. I wish a special layer on a map with some longer migrations where a user might to look what species it is and switch to display of migrations of that species. And in the species list I wish a filter of longer migrations that the app can display. On the activity map I wish to highlight a route of a single individual.

It does not show you what the animal is doing live it shows you what it was doing in the past 30 days or even the past week I wish there was a live GPS to show me how many cats are in the area that way if my cat does not have a GPS collar after you searched every cat in the area to easily find my animal
