High-resolution sound and movement recording tags (e.g. Dtags, Acousonde tags, Atags) offer unprecedented views of the fine-scale foraging behaviour of cetaceans, especially those that use sound to forage, such as the sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus). However, access to these tags is difficult a...
