In the laboratory, planktonic shrimps (Acetes sibogae) precisely follow scent trails of food or paper soaked in meat extract, L-alanine, L-leucine, and L-methionine. In the ocean, Acetes may be able to follow scent trails as far as 20 meters to catch falling food. This demonstrates precise trail-following by pelagic animals.
在实验室中，浮游虾（艾氏毛虾）能够精确地追踪食物或浸泡在肉提取物、L-丙氨酸、L-亮氨酸和L-甲硫氨酸中的纸张所散发的气味踪迹。在海洋中，艾氏毛虾或许能够追踪气味踪迹达20米之远以捕捉掉落的食物。这证明了远洋动物具有精确的追踪踪迹能力。
