Individual movement trajectories captured from the arrays across the east coast of Australia. Distance travelled compares movements in Queensland (QLD) of each individual from only existing receivers (orange) and distance combined existing and new receivers (blue). Dotted orange line in panel A represents a single additional ∼ 2000 km movement from NSW to first receiver detected in the existing QLD array. For panels B and D, no movements were detected with only the existing array. Yellow stars represent tagging location. Panels: (A) bull shark, male total length (TL) 249 cm (total distance for existing array includes distance travelled from tag location in NSW to first receiver detected in QLD), (B) giant shovelnose ray, female TL 249 cm, (C) giant trevally, TL 57 cm, (D) grey reef shark, female TL 164 cm. Movements shown are based on least-cost paths between receivers
