Applying the Ecological Trap Concept to Cetaceans
Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT Wild animals may select poor‐quality habitats due to mismatches between perceived and actual habitat quality, creating ecological traps. Although well explored in terrestrial systems, this concept remains underutilized for marine species.
