Abstract
Recent studies using DNA analysis and animal-borne cameras indicate that jellyfish may play a more important role in the diet of seabirds than the analysis of stomach contents suggest. But what role is this? Do birds consume jellies as a normal part of their diet or only when other food is scarce? While studying the foraging behavior of Yellow-eyed penguins using high-definition video loggers during a jelly bloom we found an alternative explanation for the birds’ interest in jellies.
