Behavioural Constraints to Home Range Allometries in Aquatic Organisms
We conducted a meta‐analysis on the scaling of home range size with body size across 172 species, from invertebrates to marine mammals. Our findings revealed that behavioural traits significantly influence this scaling. Specifically, trophic and pelagic behaviours, which extend beyond the influences of body size, significantly impacted home range sizes.

The Status of the Dugong (Dugong dugon Muller); Kenya, 1961.
The scarcity of dugong (Dugong dugon Muller) throughout their former range and lack of knowledge of the species' ecology justifies this record of the opinions of the fishermen in the Lamu district of Kenya, where the species is still plentiful.
