Frequency distribution of capelin caught by cod

The frequency distribution of the number of capelin (small fish) captured by a predator (cod) in a unit interval based on the analysis of stomach contents (blue). The predictions of a model in which predation is treated as a stochastic process (green) are in reasonable agreement with the data. (K G Magnússon and T Aspelund 1997 Canadian J.
