Parasitic Jaeger Range Map
The breeding range of the Parasitic Jaeger includes the coasts of Alaska, as well as coastal and inland tundra regions of northern Canada. Parasitic Jaegers also breed on the coasts of Greenland, Iceland, Scandinavia and northern Russia. Parasitic Jaegers spend the boreal winter in the temperate and tropical oceans of the southern hemisphere. Unlike other species of jaeger, which migrate along the Arctic coastline, Parasitic Jaegers that breed in northern Canada are thought to migrate over land to the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of North America. Between the northern and southern oceans, Parasitic Jaegers migrate over the seas, closely tracking the movements of terns and gulls. The Parasitic Jaeger inhabits grassy tundra and stony ground near inland lakes.
