Global warming is having an effect on the dive behavior and search for food of southern elephant seals.

The Wildlife Conservation Society tracked a southern elephant seal for an astonishing 18,000 miles – the equivalent of New York to Sydney and back again.

Elephant Seals send Scientific Data from the Antarctic to Bremerhaven via Satellite Transmitter.

Southern Elephant seals responded rapidly to climate and habitat change and established a new breeding site thousands of kilometers from existing breeding grounds, according to new research.

Researchers have confirmed the first ever sighting of a white southern elephant seal on a sub-Antarctic beach.
