Description:1. How predators maximize energetic gains while minimizing the costs associated with exploiting heterogeneous prey remains a difficult ecological principle to test in natural systems. 2. Deep -diving, air-breathing predators face conflicting demands of oxygen conser- vation to extend dive time and oxygen usage from the exercise required to find and capture prey. How predators balance these opposing factors is additionally
