African penguins follow the gaze direction of conspecifics [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Gaze following is widespread among animals. However, the corresponding ultimate functions may vary substantially. Thus, it is important to study previously understudied (or less studied) species to develop a better understanding of the ecological ...

First evidence of underwater vocalisations in hunting penguins [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Seabirds are highly vocal on land where acoustic communication plays a crucial role in reproduction. Yet, seabirds spend most of their life at sea. They have developed a number of morphological, physiological and behavioural adaptations to forage in the ...
