Ontogeny of foraging behaviour during the early life of deep diving predators
The juvenile phase of long lived-species is poorly understood despite its critical importance for the future of animal populations. Thanks to new bio-technologies, in this thesis we managed to monitor the ontogeny of foraging behaviour in 52 juveniles from 3 deep-diving marine predator species (king...

The juvenile phase of long lived-species is poorly understood despite its critical importance for the future of animal populations.
