Description:Knowledge of the diet and diving behavior of a species is crucial for understanding its behavior and ecology, and also has relevance to assessing the impact of potential changes in behavior or spatial use. Assessing diet for many species of cetaceans is difficult, given that most foraging occurs far below the surface and that stomach contents of stranded animals are rarely available. Very little information on food habits or the diving behavior of melon-headed whales (Peponocephala electra) is available from any region of the world.
