Allometry predicts trabecular bone structural properties in the carnivoran jaw joint. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Because overall cranial morphology-biomechanics linkage in carnivorans is significantly influenced by both feeding and non-feeding ecological variables, whole-skull mechanical performance measures may be less sensitive to feeding ecology than regional ...

Feeding Strategy of the Wild Korean Seahorse (Hippocampus haema)
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The feeding and spawning grounds for seahorses have been lost due to nationwide coastal developments in South Korea. However, little information on the feeding ecology of the Korean seahorse (Hippocampus haema) is currently available.

Goal-Directed Travel in the Nocturnal Javan Slow Loris (Nycticebus javanicus)
Ecologies, 2023 An animal’s ability to navigate its home range in search of essential resources is a key aspect of its ecology. To reach these resources, animals employ varying navigational processes depending on their exocentric or egocentric view of their environment.

Multilevel feeding ecology – an introduction [PDF]
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 2018 All organisms need to acquire nourishment in sufficient quantity and quality to grow and reproduce. Food sources need to be located and choices need to be made with respect to their favourability. This issue addresses host location (plants by phytophagous insects, prey by predators or parasitoids) and performance (of phytophagous and carnivorous ...

Kinematics and energetics of foraging behavior in Rice’s whales of the Gulf of Mexico
Scientific Reports, 2023 Rorqual foraging behavior varies with species, prey type and foraging conditions, and can be a determining factor for their fitness. Little is known about the foraging ecology of Rice’s whales (Balaenoptera ricei), an endangered species with a population

Ecological insights on the feeding behaviour of waterbirds in an Important Bird and Biodiversity Area of South West Johor Coast, Malaysia [PDF]
Biodiversity Data JournalMangroves and mudflats are essential intertidal habitats that support benthic communities, providing critical feeding grounds for waterbirds. However, the degradation of these habitats due to coastal reclamation poses significant threats to prey ...
