Satellite-linked telemetry tags were deployed on 30 juvenile (ages 5-21 months) Steller sea lions at sites among the central and eastern Aleutian Islands, Alaska to better understand habitat use, movements, and foraging behavior. Positions are calculated and provided by the Argos satellite system through CLS-America. Data are presented in a comma-delimited file that includes positional data and location quality.
