Summer Diet of Humpback Whales in the Northern Strait of Georgia, British Columbia (Canada), Revealed by Stable Isotope Analysis

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT North Pacific humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) have recovered rapidly following their depletion by commercial whaling. Diet studies are necessary to assess food web implications of their recovery. This study investigates the diet composition of humpback whales foraging in the northern Strait of Georgia, British Columbia, Canada, an ...

Comparative Analysis of the Whistles of Three Oceanic Dolphins in the Comoros

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Shisiwani National Park (Anjouan, Comoros) is a cetacean biodiversity hotspot. However, the vocal behavior of marine mammals inhabiting the area has never been studied. In 2023, we conducted a 400‐nautical‐mile survey from a 5‐m motorboat to determine their presence.
