Marine and Freshwater Mammals
BioOne Vista | March 2025
Free To Read Through April 14, 2025*
Aquatic and semi-aquatic mammals embody nature's extraordinary capacity for adaptation, revealing complex survival strategies that enable life in marine and freshwater environments. Research into their biology and ecosystem interactions provides critical insights for conservation efforts, helping scientists develop targeted strategies to protect these vulnerable species and the intricate aquatic habitats that sustain global biodiversity.
This collection highlights peer-reviewed studies from BioOne Complete partners, including Annales Zoologici Fennici, Aquatic Ecosystem Health and Management, Journal of Coastal Research, Journal of Mammalogy, Journal of Wildlife Diseases, Mammal Study, and more.
