E&E Webinar: Towards an Internet of Animals  »

9am 4 March 2021
Martin Wikelski, Co-director, Max Planck Institute of Animal Behaviour
I’ll share some of the latest data on animal movement around the planet. I will highlight how this helps us to preserve biodiversity, to secure our global food supplies, to anticipate pandemics and potentially to predict natural disasters.
