About the speaker
Lucy Hawkes
British biologist and animal tracking expert Lucy Hawkes has electronically tagged and tracked turtles, sharks, fish, birds, and more. Her fascination with the topic of migration inspired her to work on a range of 'animal athletes', as she calls them. Her research centers on migrations by some of the most amazing animals on the planet, including arctic terns, which travel from pole to pole every year; deep-diving basking sharks; speedy bluefin tuna; and high-flying bar-headed geese, which were once thought to migrate over the summit of Mount Everest. Hawkes loves seeing the world both during fieldwork and through these animals’ eyes.
