Drinking by sea snakes from oceanic freshwater lenses at first rainfall ending seasonal drought.
Acquisition of fresh water (FW) is problematic for FW-dependent animals living in marine environments that are distant from sources of FW associated with land. Knowledge of how marine vertebrates respond to oceanic rainfall, and indeed the drinking responses of vertebrates generally following drough...
