Nagaland’s beloved ‘Longleng’ creates ‘world record’, clocks 1,50,000 km in 4 years Myithili Hazarika © Provided by The Print New Delhi: A radio-tagged female amur falcon from Nagaland named ‘Longleng’ has stopped transmitting signals, but not before making a record of sorts. The bird, which was fitted with a satellite tag on 3 November 2016 along with three other amur falcons, now holds the “world record” of providing nearly 10,200 data of locations in nearly four years of tracking. It had transmitted its last signal from Hariatu Sumu area in inner Mongolia, around September-October last year. Suresh Kumar, a scientist at the Wildlife Institute of India (WII), Delhi, told the Eastern Mirror that Longleng “holds the ‘world record’ of providing nearly 10,200 data of locations and clocking 1,50,000 km approximately”. Kumar also said the total number of days tracked, since Longleng was radio-tagged, were 1,331.
