Reasons to Use (and Love!) Movebank, A Thread:

ALT A blonde, femme-presenting person stands in a jungle thicket with beams of light streaming around her. She's holding a VHF or UHF antenna above her head and listening to the receiver.
Movebank is proud to be featured in the newly released book “The Hidden Nations of Animals” by explorer Ryan Huling—a nonfiction travelogue that takes readers on a grand tour of animal societies. More info: penguinrandomhouse.com/books…
