Literature was reviewed and stranding data from 1983 to 2020 from the U.S. West Coast (including California, Oregon and Washington) were searched for cases of prey-related asphyxiation of harbor porpoises and analyzed in relation to age, sex, reproductive status and prey species. Twenty-nine cases were documented. Twenty-seven cases involved large prey; non-native American shad caused the asphyxiation in 87% of the cases where the prey species was identified. The majority (92%) of harbor porpoises were females, and at least 83.3% were pregnant or recently post-partum. Reproductively active females may be more likely to attempt potentially risky behavior in order to compensate for their increased energetic needs. Increasing numbers of non-native American shad may pose a unique danger in this region for harbor porpoises not adapted to deal with the challenges of that prey. This may be a cause for concern, as there is likely an interaction between location, age and reproductive status on the diet composition and foraging strategies of harbor porpoises.</description><identifier>ISSN: 2673-1924</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2673-1924</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.3390/oceans1030008</identifier><language>eng</language><ispartof>Oceans (Basel, Switzerland), 2020-09, Vol.1 (3), p.94-108</ispartof><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c276t-b3cb8324e51d1475bbe750bf7a31f804ca7bf4973231cc3fb94964db4f4a0513</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c276t-b3cb8324e51d1475bbe750bf7a31f804ca7bf4973231cc3fb94964db4f4a0513</cites><orcidid>0000-0002-1958-7687</orcidid></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,778,782,862,27913,27914</link.rule.ids></links><search><creatorcontrib>Elliser, Cindy R.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Calambokidis, John</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>D’Alessandro, Dalin N.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Duffield, Deborah A.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Huggins, Jessica L.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Rice, James</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Szczepaniak, Isidore</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Webber, Marc</creatorcontrib><title>Prey-Related Asphyxiation in Harbor Porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) along the U.S. West Coast: Importance of American Shad (Alosa sapidissima) on Adult Female Harbor Porpoise Mortality</title><title>Oceans (Basel, Switzerland)</title><description>Harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) diets are predominantly comprised of small fish species (&lt;30 cm) and squid.
