Foraging distance affects reproductive success in Magellanic penguins (2009, background): “In addition, if chicks fledged at lighter weights when trips were longer, trip distance could have an effect on future recruitment as well as current reproduction (Mougin et al. 2000, McClung et al. 2004).”
Biological effects, conservation potential, and research priorities of shark diving tourism. (2015, background): “…tourism can have sublethal physiological impacts on animals which can in turn impact important aspects of animal function such respiration, stress management, reproductive success, and body condition (e.g., McClung et al., 2004; Müllner et al., 2004; Bejder et al., 2006; Semeniuk et al., 2009).”
Testing the minimum approach distance guidelines for incubating Royal penguins Eudyptes schlegeli (2005, background): “In addition, reduced reproductive performance has been documented (Woehler et al., 1994; Giese, 1996; McClung et al., 2004), but not consistently (Yorio and Boersma, 1992; Cobley and Shears, 1999; Patterson et al.”
