Oceanographers record the largest predation event ever observed in the ocean

There is power in numbers, or so the saying goes. But in the ocean, scientists are finding that fish that group together don't necessarily survive together. In some cases, the more fish there are, the larger a target they make for predators.

This is an example of how "selfish herd" theory gets into a feedback loop. #Fishes often use #shoaling for improved mating success, foraging, or safety in numbers. However, sometimes many groups collect, getting too large and actually attract large numbers of predators. In this Norwegian study using multibeam #acoustics, Atlantic #Cod congregate on a very large shoal of #Capelin, and consume the lot in one of the largest predation events recorded.

I bought some cold smoked capelin at a local international market to try out as an alternative to canned sardines. After getting it home, I realized that the fish are not cleaned! Are cold smoked capelin usually eaten uncleaned?

I’m writing an article on the use of raw #fish as #manure around the north #Atlantic #coast. Focusing on the Gulf of St Lawrence in #nineteenthcentury where I have lots of official stats of fish caught for this purpose. Lots of eye-witness accounts too. But I’m after #farm #accounts, #diaries etc. Does anyone know of any, espec. for the #Gaspé peninsula? Any pointers gratefully received. #EnvHist #AgHist #Canada #Capelin #Herring
