Abstract Knowledge of population biological parameters can contribute to assessing the
resilience of a population in the face of increasing anthropogenic pressures. Southern …

Cetacean strandings provide important opportunities to extend current knowledge on
species or populations, particularly for species that are notoriously difficult to study, such as …

Empirical assessment of cetacean welfare to inform stranding interventions is lacking. Here,
potential welfare indicators are described for two stranded pygmy killer whales (Feresa …

Simple Summary Isotopic niche analyses can elucidate a species' foraging ecology. Using
isotopic values of δ 13C, δ 15N and δ 34S, the isotopic niche of long-finned pilot whales …

Cetacean strandings constitute one of the most important sources of information for studying
cetacean diversity and obtaining basic biological data. The Guatemalan Pacific Ocean …

Simple Summary Several life-history traits of Mediterranean sperm whales are little
explored. We present new original data on the relationships between age and body length …

Two species of pilot whales are globally distributed, the long-finned (Globicephala melas) in
cold-temperate waters and the short-finned (G. macrorhynchus) in tropical and warm …

The article describes the first documented observation of placental expulsion by a long-
finned pilot whale, which was captured on video by an unmanned aerial system (UAS) in …

Biodiversity loss is a major global challenge of the 21st century. Ultimately, extinctions of
species are determined by birth and death rates; thus, conservation management of at-risk …

Reproductive parameters were assessed in 64 male common dolphins (Delphinus delphis)
examined post-mortem from strandings and bycatch in New Zealand between 1999 and …
