“…Similar evaluations of populations’ overall energy requirements and prey consumption have continued over the years ( Banas et al, 2021 ; Bejarano et al, 2017 ; Benoit-Bird, 2004 ; Costa et al, 1989 ; Fortune et al, 2013 ; Gallagher et al, 2018 ; Guilpin et al, 2019 ; Kriete, 1995 ; Lockyer, 2007 ; Malavear, 2002 ; McHuron et al, 2017b ; Noren, 2011 ; Noren et al, 2012 , 2014 ; Rechsteiner et al, 2013 ; Reisinger et al, 2011 ; Williams et al, 2004 ; Winship et al, 2002 ). Often, accounting models have been developed with the applied management goal of quantifying the levels of predation on prey stocks and potential competition with local fisheries ( Acevedo and Urbán, 2021 ; Boyd, 2002 ; Cornick et al, 2006 ; Faure et al, 2021 ; Forcada et al, 2009 ; Markussen et al, 1992 ; McHuron et al, 2020 ; Mohn and Bowen, 1996 ; Nilssen et al, 2014 ; Olesiuk, 1993 ; Queiros et al, 2018 ; Trzcinski et al, 2006 ; Weise and Harvey, 2008 ).…”
