Whales in the North Atlantic appear to be adjusting their behaviour to coexist and divide food resources among themselves as climate crisis and human pressures reshape ocean ecosystems, according to a new long-term study.
Researchers studying fin, humpback, and minke whales in the Gulf of St Lawrence have found that the animals are eating more fish and less krill than they did in the past. Scientists say the shift could be a result of growing competition for prey as warming waters disrupt marine food supplies.
