Effects of body size, age and maturity stage on diet in a large shark: ecological and applied implications (2008, background): “…have substantial impacts on marine communities through the control they exert on mesoconsumers such as smaller sharks, rays, marine mammals, seabirds and turtles (Lucas and Stobo 2000; Acevedo-Gutiérrez 2002; Heithaus and Dill 2002, 2006; Heithaus 2005; Heithaus et al. 2007; Wirsing et al. 2007).”
