摘要: Samples of sperm whale skin, useful for modern molecular analyses DNA, can be obtained from living animals either by collecting skin sloughed naturally the whales, or using biopsy darts fired crossbows compound bows. Sloughed was found frequently in warm waters, and particular samples could often linked to photographs which enabled individuals identified. However, seemed less available at higher latitudes. Two types were collect but collected very small (<4 mm2) insufficient repeated DNA fingerprinting analyses. Sperm whales always reacted darting “startling” showing changes behavior over next few minutes, we no indications longer-term effects. In water studies, collection seems generally effective, tissue high latitudes modifications probably made order obtain larger-sized samples.
