In absence of sun light, the dominant forms of communication are bioluminescence and sound. Diverse, abundant taxa inhabit the pelagic deep sea (water column &gt;200 m). These taxa range from microplankton to meganekton, which may aggregate and migrate, resulting in a dynamic system with patches of high biomass—and rich hunting grounds for oceanic predators.</p><p>Toothed whales are mammalian top predators that occur in all oceans. Many of these, including beaked and sperm whales, hunt for deep-sea cephalopods, in particular squids (Clarke <span>2006</span>) (Fig. 1). They have evolved a range of morphological, physiological, and behavioral traits enabling prolonged breath-hold dives to 100 or 1000s of meters (Kooyman <span>2009</span>). Deep-diving toothed whales (i.e., odontocetes routinely foraging deeper than 200 m) are efficient, often generalist predators, daily capturing hundreds of prey (Visser et al. <span>2021</span>). Most cephalopods are fast-growing, relatively short-lived predators with a single reproductive cycle followed by death (semelparity), a life history adaptation that is possibly driven by a massive increase in predation pressure subsequent to the evolutionary loss of the external shell (Amodio et al. <span>2019</span>). Their size and high gonadal investment makes them nutritious prey (Boyle and Rodhouse <span>2005</span>).</p><p>The evolution of cephalopod avoidance strategies is strongly rooted in their response to predominantly visual predators. Cephalopods have co-existed with their main predators, fishes, for 530 million years (Jaitly et al. <span>2022</span>). The much more recent entry of mammals into the marine realm and ensuing evolution of predatory toothed whale echolocation (34 million years ago), created strongly different selective pressures on cephalopod adaptive strategies to avoid predation—this time by acoustic predators. The resulting evolutionary arms race in predator–prey adaptations has shaped the cephalopods and toothed whales into the organisms roaming our modern oceans. Their interactions, however, remain unobserved, and unknown. Have pelagic cephalopods succeeded in eluding large, warm-blooded predators geared for long-range detection of prey? Which traits drive the deep-sea arms race between toothed whales and cephalopods?</p><p>Here, we combine the current knowledge on deep-diving toothed whale predators and their cephalopod prey (focused on oegopsid squids) to reconstruct their sequence of predatory interactions, from search to selection and capture.

Negative impacts of the aquaculture industry include excessive nutrient loading (Islam <span>2005</span>) and subsequent eutrophication, disease introduction (Kennedy et al. <span>2016</span>), heavy metals pollution (Emenike et al. <span>2022</span>), and the assimilation of escapee fish into wild populations (Toledo-Guedes et al. <span>2014</span>). Despite ecological concerns, the aquaculture industry has continued to grow in recent decades (Naylor et al. <span>2021</span>, FAO <span>2022</span>), driven by increasing market demands and rapidly declining wild fisheries. The continued pursuit of a sustainable future for aquaculture is critical not only to meet global food demands, but also to support local economies and communities. Though by no means a silver bullet for solving systematic inequities, aquaculture can play a critical role in improving public health and well-being by increasing access to nutrition (Gephart et al. <span>2021</span>), providing employment opportunities, especially for women (Gopal et al. <span>2020</span>), and contributing to sustainable development overall (Subasinghe et al. <span>2009</span>).
