Global tracking of shark movements, behaviour and ecology: A review of the renaissance years of satellite tagging studies, 2010–2020
Satellite telemetry as a tool in marine ecological research continues to adapt and grow and
has become increasingly popular in recent years to study shark species on a global scale. A …

Do wild carnivores forage for prey or for nutrients? Evidence for nutrient‐specific foraging in vertebrate predators
A widespread perception is that carnivores are limited by the amount of prey that can be
captured rather than their nutritional quality, and thus have no need to regulate …
