What is Leopard Seal Diet in Eastern Antarctica about?

This study investigates the summer diet of leopard seals in Prydz Bay, Eastern Antarctica, analyzing 70 scats, 1 regurgitate, and 3 stomach contents collected over three austral summers. The primary prey identified were Adelie penguins, supplemented by crabeater seals, fish, amphipods, and krill, while cephalopods were absent from the diet. The findings highlight the variability in individual leopard seal diets, with a significant occurrence of penguins in the samples.
