... predators and prey. Here, we investigated the efficiency of a small pinniped, the Antarctic fur seal ( Arctocephalus gazella ) at exploiting their small prey by describing for the first time their fine-scale predator–prey interactions. We compared these with those from another diving predator, the southern...
