Has anyone seen this? Just scroll down to them bottom to register, then skip the survey to get a satellite image of where certain satellite tracked mallards are.

The arkansas fish and game commission placed satellite trackers on a bunch of mallards, I'm not sure of the exact number. It's very cool to pull up the flight path of one duck to get a general idea of how the ducks move from canada down to the southern US.

Yeah thats pretty cool. I believe that the state of Mississippi put trackers on 50 mallards this year and Arkansas put trackers on 30 of them. But I'm some of them got smoked though. :lol:
