Segregation of foraging between two sympatric penguin species: does rate maximisation make the difference?

Macaroni Eudyptes chrysolophus and gentoo Pygoscelis papua penguins occur sympatrically at Bird Island (54degrees00'S, 38degrees02'W), South Georgia, and have a similar diet. Macaroni penguins forage at shallower depths and further from the island than gentoo penguins. We tested the hypoth...
