| Resumen: |
Este libro se centra en los grupos de mamÃferos marinos Otariidae y Odobenidae, también conocidos como lobos marinos, leones marinos y morsas. En 30 capÃtulos, más de 60 autores de 30 instituciones y 13 nacionalidades discuten un amplio conjunto de temas, desde el cuidado materno y el comportamiento de apareamiento, pasando por el juego, la cognición y la personalidad, hasta la adaptación a la vida en el Antropoceno. Los autores exploran los comportamientos que han permitido a estos mamÃferos semiacuáticos prosperar en el ámbito marino. Muchas poblaciones se han recuperado tras la aniquilación histórica, con interesantes consecuencias evolutivas que se exploran. También se proporcionan descripciones detalladas, seleccionadas e individuales de especies, que muestran la diversidad de comportamiento de este grupo de mamÃferos marinos atractivo, adaptable y de gran éxito. |

| Summary : |
This book is focused on the marine mammalian groups the Otariidae and the Odobenidae, otherwise known as fur seals, sea lions and the walrus. In 30 chapters, more than 60 authors from 30 institutions and 13 nationalities, discuss a broad suite of topics from maternal care and mating behavior, through play, cognition and personality, to adaptation to life in the Anthropocene. The authors explore the behaviors that have allowed these semi-aquatic mammals to thrive in the marine realm. Many populations have recovered following historical decimation, with interesting evolutionary consequences which are explored. Detailed, selected, individual species descriptions are also provided, showcasing the behavioral diversity of this engaging, adaptive and highly successful group of marine mammals. |
