Anti-predator behaviour of Cape fur seals Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus in relation to predation by white sharks Carcharodon carcharias around Seal Island, False Bay, South Africa

open access: yes, 2010
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 161-202).How predators affect the behaviour of their prey is one of the most studied subjects in behavioural ecology, with many hypothesis and models explaining how animals should behave and even more ...

Assessing the Functional Limitations of Lipids and Fatty Acids for Diet Determination: The Importance of Tissue Type, Quantity, and Quality

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
Lipid and fatty acid (FA) analysis is commonly used to describe the trophic ecology of an increasing number of taxa. However, the applicability of these analyses is contingent upon the collection and storage of sufficient high quality tissue, the ...

The status of the great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) in Turkey's waters

open access: yesMarine Biodiversity Records, 2014
Forty-six individuals of Carcharodon carcharias were either recorded or sighted in Turkey's waters during a period from February 1881 to 28 September 2011. Total lengths (TLs) of the recorded great white sharks ranged from 85 cm TL to ~800 cm TL, and mass ranged between 12 kg and ~4500 kg. Three non-fatal shark attacks on boats of tuna hand-liners were

An injured specimen of Carcharodon carcharias; prospective assessment of the species’ hunting costs.

open access: yesCICIMAR Oceánides, 2015
Although culturally the great ti white buron (Carcharodon carcharias) as a predator invulnerable, in the present the death of a species is reported sub-adult men caught in a fishing net; specific saying Men was injured by the spine of a pelagic ray that penetrated the shark's spine, making it possible mind impaired their ability to swim.

Effects of short-term capture on the physiology of white sharks Carcharodon carcharias: amino acids and fatty acids

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2019
Empirical evaluations of how overexploited marine fishes respond to capture stress (physiologically and behaviourally) have become increasingly important for informed fisheries management.
