Evidence for reproductive philopatry in the bull shark, Carcharhinus leucas in northern Australia.
Abstract Adult bull sharks (Carcharhinus leucas) are ubiquitous in near- and off-shore habitats across northern Australia. Females give birth in freshwater / estuarine nurseries and juveniles mature in these environments. If females return to the same pupping areas, then this reproductive philopatry could drive patterns of genetic diversity among nurseries. To test this hypothesis we […]
