Scaling the Feeding Mechanism of Captive Alligator mississippiensis from Hatchling to Juvenile
Small changes in size can lead to potential performance consequences and may influence an organism’s ability to utilize resources in its environment. As the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) transitions between neonate, juvenile and adult habitats (ontogenetic niche shifts), there are...
