Underwater vocalizations of leopard seals ( Hydrurga leptonyx ) and crabeater seals ( Lobodon carcinophagus ) near the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica
Four underwater vocalizations of leopard seals (Hydrurga leptonyx) and one from the crabeater seal (Lobodon carcinophagus), representing most of their vocal repertoires, are described quantitatively and illustrated with sound spectrographs. Most of the underwater vocalizations given by these seals c...
