Moult in adult royal penguins, Eudyptes schlegeli / Cindy L. Hull, Jane Wilson, Kirsten le Mar.
Title: | Moult in adult royal penguins, Eudyptes schlegeli / Cindy L. Hull, Jane Wilson, Kirsten le Mar. |
Author(s): | Hull, Cindy L. Wilson, Jane. Mar, Kirsten le. |
Date: | 2001. |
In: | Emu. (2001.), Vol. 101(2) (2001) |
Abstract: | Describes mass change during moult in royal penguins at sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island in 1995, and estimates energetic costs and prey-consumption rates required to fuel moult. During pre-moult foraging trip individuals increased in mass by 3 kg. Moult lasted 28 days and birds lost 46-47% of pre-moult mass. Estimate of food required to fuel this stage in life cycle of royal penguins is 1.39 x 10⁷ kg, which constitutes important component of overall energy budget. |
