Changes in activity of harp seal (Pagophilus groenlandicus) in the spring – summer period in conditions of aviary keeping
The results of research on changes in active forms of behavior of two representatives of harp seal (Pagophilus groenlandicus Erxleben, 1777) in the spring - summer period in conditions of aviary keeping by analyzing its quantitative characteristics have been presented. Material for this paper was ga...
