Fish across Britain's seas face ever-smaller meals as warmer seas and commercial fishing squeeze ocean food webs, new research suggests. Research by the University of Essex and the UK Government's ...
As oceans warm, marine predators are increasingly forced to eat smaller prey, leaving them working harder for less energy.
A new study on blue sharks shows that their movement patterns in the open ocean are closely linked to internal energy stores ...
Hunting is an art form for the squid. These deep-sea creatures evolved to thrive in the darkness and also survive its challenges. In an environment where other fish would be ill-equipped, the squid ...
The hunt is on and a predator finally zeroes in on its prey. The animal consumes the nutritious meal and moves on to forage for its next target. But how much prey does a predator need to consume?
Mathematical modelling has long provided critical insights into the complex interactions between predators and their prey. Traditional approaches, such as the Lotka–Volterra model, lay the foundation ...
Animal survival depends on effective attack and defense strategies, yet how these behaviors arise remains unclear. Addressing ...
Megalodon tends to dominate conversations about prehistoric ocean predators. Its massive jaws and oversized teeth have turned it into a pop-culture icon that feels almost mythical. Yet during the ...
