Segregati on and foraging ecology of whale sharks, Rhincodon typus, in the southwestern Gulf of California
James Ketchum, Felipe Galván-Magaña y Peter Klimley
Many species of sharks segregate by age and sex. Whale sharks segregate by size in the Gulf of California and may also segregate by sex in this region. Are there specifi c prey needs and environmental preferences that explain such segregati on? What would be the advantages of this behavior? We examined their distributi on, foraging behavior, abundance and compositi on of zooplankton, and hydrographic conditi ons in the Bay of La Paz (BLP) and nearby off shore areas in the Gulf of California. Sighti ngs of whale sharks were frequent both inshore and off shore in the BLP.
