Studying seabird and seal foraging behavior, habitat use and fishery interactions 🐧 🦭🇦🇶
South American fur #seals tagged in the Falkland Islands 🦭 Females, males and pups showing extensive use of the Patagonian Shelf and providing valuable insights into their movements throughout the year 📊 🧪 🌎

🚨 New research! 🚨 Seal-fishery interactions in the #Falklands Islands have surged since 2017 🦭 Using 5 years of observer data 👀, we found fur #seals interact with 1/3 of trawls, mostly in high-yield & productive areas 🦑

And they’re off! Marine predator chaos over the Patagonian Shelf...and some fur seal pups going rogue and doing their own thing - venturing out towards South Georgia 🦭🐧

Such an amazing dataset to be working with! 📊👏
