Stable Isotope Analysis of New Zealand Fur Seal Vibrissae Shows Deceased Juveniles Were Weaned Early
New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 2, June 2026.The New Zealand fur seal/kekeno (Arctocephalus forsteri, NZFS) is a marine predator native to Aotearoa/New Zealand. Little is known about its fine‐scale dispersal around New Zealand in the nonbreeding season. As an alternative to external marking or electronic tracking, stable isotope analysis was trialed to determine the origin of stranded (deceased ...

Intraclutch Egg-Size Variation in Magellanic Penguins [PDF]
The Condor, 2005 Abstract We investigated patterns and consequences of intraclutch egg-size variation in Magellanic Penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus). First-laid eggs were significantly larger than second-laid eggs, although the mean difference represented only 2% of an average egg's volume.

High resolution data reveal fundamental steps and turns in animal movements
Ecological Monographs, Volume 96, Issue 2, May 2026.Abstract Animal movement paths display substantial complexity and variability, promoting efforts to identify universal rules and models that best describe them. Using high‐resolution (≥10 Hz) movement from 43 vertebrate species spanning diverse taxa, body sizes, and lifestyles, we show that paths are universally composed of straight‐line steps ...
