VENTILATORY RATE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SURFACE‐FEEDING AND NON‐SURFACE‐FEEDING FIN WHALES ( BALAENOPTERA PHYSALUS ) IN THE WATERS OFF EASTERN LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK, U.S.A., 1981–1987
A bstract Observations of feeding and ventilatory behavior of individual fin whales ( Balaenoptera physalus )were made from various vessels during the months of May–September, 1981–1987, in the waters off eastern Long Island, N.Y., U.S.A.
