The Humboldt Penguin also feeds on anchovies, Araucanian herring, silverside, and to a lesser extent cephalopods and crustaceans.
“Closely related to the Galápagos penguin, the Humboldt Penguin (Spheniscus humboldti) also feeds on anchovies (Engraulis ringens), Araucanian herring (Strangomera bentincki), and silverside (Odontesthes regia), and to a lesser extent, cephalopods (Patagonian squid, Doryteuthis gahi and Humboldt squid, Dosidiscus gigas) and crustaceans (stomatopods and isopods) [58].”

It is reasonable to conclude that juvenile barracuda are likely to be preyed upon, given the preferred prey size for penguins.
“It is reasonable to conclude that juvenile barracuda are likely to be preyed upon, given the preferred prey size for penguins [58, 63].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
