Description:Researchers frequently use acoustic telemetry to monitor fish behavior and survival and to investigate population dynamics of many species. Managers use this information to guide decision making for protected species, recreational, or commercial fisheries management. Therefore, it is important for researchers to be confident that they are monitoring their tagged animal and not a predator. An important variable in determining study fish movement versus predator movement is expulsion rates of a consumed transmitter. We evaluated the transmitter expulsion rate of locally known Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolt predators, which are age 2-4 (40-54 cm) striped bass (Morone saxatilis) that received a transmitter by 2 different ingestion methods.
