Hey, a big welcome to Splash Flash readers! Check back here daily to find out the location of our last satellite tagged Franciscana dolphin---we call her Yanaa. Today she is moving through the northwestern portion of her range.

Yaana has moved from one end of her "range" to the other over the past day.
Analyses of data from 2006 and 2007 have been moving forward with Pablo and Andy in Sarasota, and with help from Carpi, Leigh Klatsky, and Janet Gannon. Among the findings from 2006 is that the dolphins in Bahia Samborombon tend to be found significantly farther to the east on low tides, and farther to the west on high tides, confirming hypotheses resulting from our pilot radio-tracking study in 2005. According to local fishermen, this is the same pattern exhibited by the dolphins' prey fish.
