Seal Facts - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Seals like this one photographed during the Sea Ice Physics and Ecosystem Experiment (SIPEX-II) in Antarctica, depend on sea ice to survive They hunt for food, such as fish and krill, under the ice, and use the ice surface for rest and to have their pups (Photo by Peter Kimball, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
Seal Whiskers Inspire Marine Technology - Woods Hole Oceanographic . . . Could seals also use their whiskers to “feel” the surrounding water patterns to track fish that swim by? In the early 2000s, marine biologists at the University of Rostock in Germany began to explore that theory They conducted experiments in which they placed a blindfold and earmuffs on a seal
Studying How Seals Adapt to Extreme Environments Could Lead to Benefits . . . However, seals appear to manipulate how glucose is transferred between maternal and fetal blood differently from all other animals studied to date and may provide insight into early intervention for human pregnancies with gestational diabetes, the article indicates
Caught on camera: Scientists and fishermen team up to film seals in . . . Seals find ease in taking a meal already ensnared in wall-like gillnets cast by fishermen, but at what cost? WHOI biologist Andrea Bogomolni works with the fishing community to record and observe this behavior with the hopes of mitigating marine mammal bycatch
The value of iron for a seal - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The seals’ whiskers act as a sort of dietary timeline, incorporating molecular signatures from various food sources as they grow Using a technique called stable isotope analysis, the researchers can identify different signatures in a seal’s whiskers and match them to potential prey items
The Return of the Seals - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution The sites included beaches in six towns near where seals haul out: Provincetown, Truro, Wellfleet, Eastham, Orleans, and Chatham In particular, she examined how many times levels of bacteria associated with fecal contamination exceeded limits for public health and triggered beach closures
