Elephant seal travels 18,000 miles

 This article is bout an elephant seal named Jackson that was tracked by The Wildlife Conservation Society. He was tracked from December 2010 to November 2011 and he traveled 18,000 miles. While reading this article i found out that elephant seals are  indicators of the health in marine ecosysetems and can show how climate change influences species. Jacksons journey provides a map of how elephant seals use the Patagonian Coast and its associated seas. His journey was very important and vital information that can help improve Ocean Managment.
