Abstract

BACKGROUND: We sought to quantitatively describe the fine-scale foraging behavior of northern resident killer whales (

RESULTS: Three-dimensional dive tracks indicated that foraging (

CONCLUSIONS: High-resolution dive tracks reconstructed using data collected by multi-sensor accelerometer tags found that movements by resident killer whales relate significantly to the vertical distributions and escape responses of their primary prey, Pacific salmon.
