Large‐scale molecular barcoding of prey DNA reveals predictors of intrapopulation feeding diversity in a marine predator

Abstract Predator–prey interactions are critical in understanding how communities function. However, we need to describe intraspecific variation in diet to accurately depict those interactions. Harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) are an abundant marine predator that prey on species of conservation concern...
