Bubble blasts! An adaptation for buoyancy regulation in shallow foraging gray whales

Clara N. Bird,
Enrico Pirotta,
Leslie New
et al.

Abstract: Foraging efficiency is key to animal fitness. Consequently, animals evolved a variety of kinematic, morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptations for efficient locomotion to reduce energy expenditure while moving to find, capture, and consume prey. Often suited to specific habitat and prey types, these adaptations correspond to the terrain or substrate the animal moves through. In aquatic systems, adaptations focus on overcoming drag, buoyancy, and hydrostatic forces. Buoyancy both benefits and hind… Show more
