- Sizing up the ecological role of sharks as predators (2014, background): “…have been labelled as apex predators, such as bull sharks (O’Connell et al. 2007), copper sharks (Benavides et al. 2011) and Carib bean reef sharks (Maljkovic & Cote 2011), and indeed whole shark assemblages are often labelled generically as ‘apex’, ‘top predators’ or ‘great sharks’ (e.g.…”

- Shark and ray provisioning: functional insights into behavioral, ecological and physiological responses across multiple scales (2015, background): “Group hierarchies described in fed elasmobranch aggregations are thought to be size-dependent (Newsome et al. 2004, Clua et al. 2010a, Maljkovi & Côté 2011), as has been stated in past studies on shark social behavior (Allee & Dickinson 1954, Myrberg & Gruber 1974).”
- Don't bite the hand that feeds: assessing ecological impacts of provisioning ecotourism on an apex marine predator (2012, background): “Tiger sharks were tagged in two general areas of the western central Atlantic: (i) a popular ecotourism dive site in the Bahamas, (nicknamed 'Tiger Beach'); and (ii) within Florida state marine waters.”
- Biological effects, conservation potential, and research priorities of shark diving tourism. (2015, background): “By monitoring the success rates of individual sharks taking offered bait and calculating energy intake rates, Maljković and Côté (2011) concluded that these successful individuals were unlikely to meet their metabolic needs with offered bait and that their natural predation rates are unlikely to…”
