Como "vêem" os cetáceos debaixo de água?
Neste excerto do programa 𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐬𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐚 (𝐑𝐓𝐏𝟐), o nosso investigador Filipe Alves explica como estes animais emitem sons e interpretam os ecos para localizar presas e comunicar no vasto oceano.

With the Funchal Ecological Park, we’re helping identify the Manx shearwater’s breeding areas in Madeira and have found three active nests so far! We’ve also deployed three GPS tags, so we know this subspecies travels between Madeira Island, the Desertas Islands and Morocco, up to 4,800 km!

Macaronesia is home to the pelagic seabird Manx shearwater (subspecies Puffinus puffinus canariensis). This long-lived and far-travelling seabird only comes to land for breeding and nests in burrows, which it visits at night. Perhaps you’ve heard its nighttime cackling, crooning and ‘coughing’?

So you think you’re faster than a snail?
Pelagic gastropods are slippery critters! Marine researchers have great difficulty in catching them in the open ocean – some liken it to trying to catch a fly in a jar…outside!
