Isochrony in barks of Cape fur seal (<i>Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus</i>) pups and adults.

Project description:Animal vocal communication often relies on call sequences. The temporal patterns of such sequences can be adjusted to other callers, follow complex rhythmic structures or exhibit a metronome-like pattern (i.e., isochronous). How regular are the temporal patterns in animal signals, and what influences their precision? If present, are rhythms already there early in ontogeny? Here, we describe an exploratory study of Cape fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus) barks-a vocalisation type produced across many pinniped species in rhythmic, percussive bouts. This study is the first quantitative description of barking in Cape fur seal pups. We analysed the rhythmic structures of spontaneous barking bouts of pups and adult females from the breeding colony in Cape Cross, Namibia. Barks of adult females exhibited isochrony, that is they were produced at fairly regular points in time. Instead, intervals between pup barks were more variable, that is skipping a bark in the isochronous series occasionally. In both age classes, beat precision, that is how well the barks followed a perfect template, was worse when barking at higher rates. Differences could be explained by physiological factors, such as respiration or arousal. Whether, and how, isochrony develops in this species remains an open question. This study provides evidence towards a rhythmic production of barks in Cape fur seal pups and lays the groundwork for future studies to investigate the development of rhythm using multidimensional metrics.

Temporal allocation of foraging effort in female Australian fur seals (Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus).

Project description:Across an individual's life, foraging decisions will be affected by multiple intrinsic and extrinsic drivers that act at differing timescales. This study aimed to assess how female Australian fur seals allocated foraging effort and the behavioural changes used to achieve this at three temporal scales: within a day, across a foraging trip and across the final six months of the lactation period. Foraging effort peaked during daylight hours (57% of time diving) with lulls in activity just prior to and after daylight. Dive duration reduced across the day (196 s to 168 s) but this was compensated for by an increase in the vertical travel rate (1500-1600 m·h(-1)) and a reduction in postdive duration (111-90 s). This suggests physiological constraints (digestive costs) or prey availability may be limiting mean dive durations as a day progresses. During short trips (<2.9 d), effort remained steady at 55% of time diving, whereas, on long trips (>2.9 d) effort increased up to 2-3 d and then decreased. Dive duration decreased at the same rate in short and long trips, respectively, before stabilising (long trips) between 4-5 d. Suggesting that the same processes (digestive costs or prey availability) working at the daily scale may also be present across a trip. Across the lactation period, foraging effort, dive duration and vertical travel rate increased until August, before beginning to decrease. This suggests that as the nutritional demands of the suckling pup and developing foetus increase, female effort increases to accommodate this, providing insight into the potential constraints of maternal investment in this species.

Larvae of Clistobothrium grimaldii (Cestoda: Phyllobothriidea) from a Cape fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus) kept in a zoo in Japan.

Project description:The larval form of the Phyllobothriidea cestode was found in the blubber of a Cape fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus pusillus) from a zoo in Japan. Bladder-bearing larval cestodes with a scolex have been occasionally reported from blubbers of pinnipeds and morphologically identified as Clistobothrium delphini (formerly known as Phyllobothrium delphini) or rarely Clistobothrium grimaldii (Monorygma grimaldii). Although the larvae here morphologically resembled C. delphini, the 28S rDNA sequence was 100% (1,430/1,430 bp) homologous to the registered sequence of C. grimaldii (GenBank Accession No. KU724058). This discrepancy between morphological and molecular analyses confirms the difficulty of identifying C. delphini and C. grimaldii larvae based solely on morphology, and the need for molecular data to elucidate the morphological variations in Clistobothrium parasites.
