Costa (USA) Resumen: During the breeding season, Antarctic fur seals are central-place foragers, ranging from their colony to feeding areas hours to days offshore, returning periodically to suckle. Outside of this, little is known about a female’s foraging strategy, her success upon which depends not only her survival but that of her young. As such, a fundamental component to understanding the survival and Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión
