And they are, and they're changing their dives and all these things.

But we can't get that really, really fine scale decision making just yet.

So one of the ideas I had with the tags was,

is maybe, you know, they're coming up from a dive slower.

Because I thought maybe they'd be coming up from a dive slower so that they have time to maybe listen, to hear if there's a bear.

But the bears are sit and wait predators for the most part.

So they're sitting at a seal hole waiting for the seal to come up.

So

We did end up finding that.

And then I was also curious, you know, maybe they're going to come up slower or have a longer dive or a shorter dive.

Maybe there are all these different thoughts I had.

You know, they want to be able to suss out if there's going to be a bear at the surface.

And then if there is, maybe they'll find another hole to the surface.

But we didn't find any of those really fine scale relationships.

And I think that it's not to say necessarily that they don't exist.

It may just be that we don't have really fine scale tags just yet.

Totally.

Yeah, we got questions too.

So I think that the big thing here is that the climate change is not just affecting, it's not just affecting the bears, it's not just affecting the seals or just affecting the fish.

It's really affecting this whole system.
