The Arctic Tern, known for the longest migration of any animal, breeds in Iceland during summer, taking advantage of the island's rich feeding grounds. With the approach of winter, it embarks on an awe-inspiring journey to the Antarctic seas, covering around 40.000 km annually. This incredible voyage ensues its exposure to continuous summer conditions, vital for feeding and survival. The tern's migration is a remarkable demonstration of endurance, navigating vast distances between the poles to exploit the globe's seasonal productivity cycles.
