  • Performing Arts Center San Luis Obispo 1 Grand Avenue San Luis Obispo, CA, 93405 United States (map)

SUN, JAN 31 | 2:00PM | HAROLD MIOSSI HALL | $31-44 | VIP $74

Every year, billions of animals migrate in search of food, water, or a mate. We go on assignment with ecologist and National Geographic Explorer Lucy Hawkes as she investigates some of the most astonishing stories of animal perseverance. Along the way, meet the unexpected mammals, fish, and birds that qualify as the most incredible animal athletes, and trace their massive migrations across the globe. 


Lucy Hawkes is a physiological ecologist who uses the latest state-of-the-art miniaturized electronic tracking units to study species movement and migration. She works with a range of animal athletes, from deep-diving basking sharks to high-flying bar-headed geese. Hawkes obtained her Ph.D. from the University of Exeter, where she was the first person to track sea turtles from populations in North Carolina and the Cape Verde Islands. She has written more than 60 scientific articles, which have been cited more than 2,300 times.
