CLIMATE CHANGE. Arctic animals changing feeding habits due to warming temperatures, new study of whales and seals finds: ‘The data showed that two decades ago, both species spent around half their time foraging at glacier fronts and eating a diet dominated by polar cod. But ringed seals now spend “significantly higher proportions of time near tidal glacier fronts” while the white whales had the opposite response and had moved elsewhere to look for food. “Tidal glacier fronts appear to be serving as Arctic ‘refugia' for RS (ringed seals), explaining why this species has increased the amount of time spent near glaciers,” the study said. White whales meanwhile now “have larger home ranges and spent less time near glacier fronts and more time in the centre of fjords”.”
