Diet of dugongs: are they omnivores?
Jour. Mamm. 76(1): 163-171. 1 tab. Feb. 23, 1995.
–Summ.: BBC Wildlife 13(7): 23, 1 fig., July 1995. Analysis of dugong feces from Moreton Bay, Queensland, showed they had fed deliberately on ascidians and polychaetes in addition to seagrasses. This is attributed to nutritional stress due to seasonal scarcity of seagrasses at this subtropical site.
