Technological advances have made it possible for researchers to track the movements of large ocean-dwelling animals in three dimensions with remarkable precision in both time and space. Researchers reporting in the journal iScience on March 18 have now used this biologging technology to find that, for reasons the researchers don’t yet understand, green sea turtles, sharks, penguins, and marine mammals all do something rather unusual: swimming in circles.
