When scientists are studying animals in the wild, they often want to
follow the animals movement.

One way that scientists have often tracked wild animals in the past
has been with radio transmitters. A radio collar could be attached to an
animal, and the animal could be tracked on a radio receiver. The major
problem has been that radio signals werent reliable. They could come and
go as animals traveled too far.

Now scientists are using a new way to track animals in the wild. This
new way of tracking animals uses satellites. Transmitters are attached to
animals in the wild, and the transmitters send signals into the atmosphere
every few hours. Weather satellites circling the earth receive the signals
from the animals, and scientists get the information from the satellites .
