Description
Summary:Acknowledgments We would like to thank all the staff and students who have been involved in the data collection. Matt Carter for his support in the early stages of the analysis, Sophie Brasseur for her valuable input and ideas on harbour seal feeding strategies and Thomas Bodey who provided suggestions and comments on the manuscript draft. We dedicate this study to Dr Bernie McConnell, who did so much to drive the development of the telemetry devices that revealed these and many other insights into the behaviour of seals at sea.
