Inter and intra specific interactions in marine habitat selection of two sympatric seal species in Northeast Atlantic

The behavioural plasticity and the interactions between organisms are known to influence foraging habitat selection and spatial usage. In the Northeast Atlantic, greyand harbour seals live in sympatry. These two species are spread into different colonies where interactions between organisms (linked...
