Considering the prey capture method (suction feeding vs. raptorial feeding) is therefore important for elucidating relationships that exist between form and function. These findings suggest that cranial morphology is intimately linked to prey size niche in toothed whales within specific functional contexts.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:25:06 AEDT ]]>
