Steller’s Sea Cow Hydrodamalis gigas, weighing ± 10 tons or more, ate mostly kelp. became known to science in 1741, inhabited kelp beds of the Commander Islands,
W Bering Sea.
Its meat was considered “as good as the best cut beef”, which led to its extermination at the hands of whalers.
Species was slaughtered to extinction soon after its discovery, the last known live individual was taken in
1768.
Steller’s Sea Cow Hydrodamalis gigas,
1741-1768
• discovered 1741, Bering Sea
• no pelt, no tusks, non-aggressive
• very tasty meat (beef), easy to ‘harvest’
• extinct 1768

Oceanic seabirds, however, rarely dive particularly deep

How to find food…..in an ‘empty’ environment with patchy resources?
• Visual cues detect prey or foraging flocks by eye
• Olfactory cues smell resources
• Auditory cues hear prey or produce/receive sound
• Habitat ‘understanding’ know situations that enhancefeeding opportunities
• Memory remember reliable locations
• Interpretation interpret other cues as likely feedinglocations

• Visual cues how to detect prey by eye
© CJ Camphuysen
Underwater prey is notoriously hard to detect and the field of vision of an overflying seabird is limited.Adverse weather will reduce the likelihood of preydetection.

The main coastal upwelling systems are found on the eastern side of the ocean basins
• Canary Current upwelling system
• Benguela Current upwelling system
• California Current upwelling system
• Peru Current upwelling system
Upwelling areas support a rich ecosystem
• Upwelled water is rich in nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus.
• When upwelled water reaches the sun-lit zone, nutrients allow the growth of phytoplankton.
• Phytoplankton are grazed by zooplankton, small animals that are in turn eaten by fish
• Fish is eaten in turn by seabirds and marine mammals.

a fish ball
Fish balls tend to intimidate predators and provide relative safetyfor individual fish

Nottestad L. & B.E. Axelsen 1999. Herring schooling manoeuvres in response to killer whale attacks. Can. J. Zool. 77: 1540-1546.
The antipredator behaviour of herring was investigated during repeated attacks by killer whales in Tysfjord in northwestern Norway using a high-resolution (455 kHz) multibeam sonar.
Ten different types of predator-prey interactions were recorded.
Antipredator responses included "split," "hourglass," "vacuole," "bend," "dive," "herd," and "fountain."
Large attacked schools demonstrated a different repertoire of antipredatormanoeuvres than small ones and were less likely to be attacked.
Herring schools with a cross section exceeding 460 m² were not attacked by killer whales.
Attacked schools were significantly more circular (p < 0.0001) and had higher relative densities (p < 0.05) than schools that were not attacked.

The concept of central-place foraging
86
Simple rule of thumb:An animal should gain energy during a foraging trip,energy for maintenance, growth, and/or reproduction
The costs of travel (locomotion), handling, digestion and prey carrying should be outweighed by the food intake
Energy requirements: FMR + the needs for partner & offspring during breeding

Norway was one of the countries that caught the highest numbers of bluefin tuna in Europe in the 1950s and 1960s, but the fishery was over by the mid-1980s.
In 2008, Norway issued on a ban on the fishery.

Marine biologists are scratching their heads this week, trying to figure out how a grey whale, normally found only in the Pacific Ocean, has been spotted off the coast of Israel, 10 May 2010.
The solitary whale, measuring some 12 metres (39 feet) and weighing around 20 tonnes, was first sighted off Herzliya on the coast of the Mediterranean, on Saturday.
A mysterious gray whale sighted off the coast of Israel in the Mediterranean Sea has been seen again off the north east coast of Spain.
The second sighting, made 23 days and 3000km after the first, has continued to perplex whale experts.
