Hunting behavior of a solitary sailfish Istiophorus platypterus and estimated energy gain after prey capture
Abstract Foraging behavior and interaction with prey is an integral component of the ecological niche of predators but is inherently difficult to observe for highly mobile animals in the marine environment. Billfishes have been described as energy speculators, expending a large amount of energy fora...
