Population abundance, structure and turnover estimates for leopard seals during winter dispersal combining tagging and photo-identification data
Winter dispersal in leopard seals is poorly understood because of its low density in most of its range. By combining photo-identification and tagging data from Bird Island, South Georgia, in mark-recapture models, leopard seal abundance over the winter of 2005 was estimated as 118 (95% CI: 78–179)....
