Vulnerability of marine megafauna to global at‐sea anthropogenic threats
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened ...Michelle VanCompernolle, Juliet Morris, Hannah J.

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2004 Massive urolithiasis of the penile urethra was observed in an adult pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) stranded on Topsail Island, North Carolina, USA. Calculi occupied the urethra from just distal to the sigmoid flexure to the tip of the penis for a length of 43 cm. A urethral diverticulum was present proximal to the calculi.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT
Acoustic studies for any cetacean species in tropical Atlantic Ocean waters are scarce, especially for oceanic dolphins, such as the melon‐headed whale, Peponocephala electra. Here we describe a unique visual and acoustic record for this species, filling an information gap about the acoustic patterns of these delphinids in this part of the ...Diana C.
