Sleep is widespread across the animal kingdom. However, most comparative sleep data
exist for terrestrial vertebrates, with much less known about sleep in amphibians, bony …

There has recently been great interest in the use of accelerometers onboard electronic
transmitters to characterise various aspects of the ecology of wild animals. We review use …

Simple Summary Studies investigating whether a captive environment is meeting the needs
of the species housed are relatively common among captive mammals. However, studies …

Tourism-related feeding of wildlife can result in detrimental, human-induced changes to the
spatial distribution, social behaviour and health of target species. The feeding of sharks as …

Sleep is known to occur in most, if not all, animals studied thus far. Recent studies
demonstrate the presence of sleep in flatworms and jellyfish, suggesting that this behaviour …

This paper presents the feature extraction, selection and K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN)
algorithm to classify behaviors of sharks based on the data collected by tri-axial acceleration …

Shark populations have suffered dramatic declines across the world as a result of
overfishing. Marine protected areas (MPAs) can help restore overfished populations; …

Movement ecology has traditionally focused on the movements of animals over large time
scales, but, with advancements in sensor technology, the focus can become increasingly …

Examining the movement ecology of mesopredators is fundamental to developing an
