Fine‐scale diversity of prey detected in humpback whale feces
We investigated the prey consumed by humpback whales in three heterogenous regions in southern British Columbia, Canada, using opportunistic faecal sampling, microscopy, and DNA metabarcoding of 14 faecal samples. Fish including Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii), hake (Merluccius productus), and eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) were the most common ...
