🐧 Penguin Dive Bouts: Oxygen Budget, Prey-Patch Depletion and the Marginal Value Theorem Lab

A 3D cut-away of a penguin diving from an ice edge to a fish patch. Oxygen use, patch depletion and recovery time set the best bottom time; compare quick grabs, the marginal-value optimum and greedy dives, with stochastic dives checked against closed forms.
