Challenge Question #2

We picked these birds to wear the satellite transmitters:

#402 - because it dropped out on Day 2 and on Day 36 it decided that it couldn't manage to still fly for more that 7 hours
(a trouble maker that needs to be watched).

#405 - he flew pff by himself to avoid the other birds.

#418 - he will not migrate with flockmates. Instead, he will be released in hopes that he'll join up with some experienced
ultra-whoopers on the refuge and follow them, thus learning the route. However, the ultra-whopers might drive him
off or battle him and his position needs to be know so he doesn't get lost.

#419 - she hates #403 and has a real attitude. She is stubborn and independant. She also droppped out and she might
drop out again. So, she should have a transmitter.
