The Most Northerly Record of a Southern Elephant Seal (Mirounga leonina) in the Pacific Ocean at the Island of Taboga, Gulf of Panama, Panam
Pinnipeds occur only occasionally in Panamanian Pacific waters, usually during extreme climatic events such as the El Nino phenomenon (Felix et al., 2007; Autoridad de los Recursos Acuaticos de Panama [ARAP], 2014). In general, these specimens are wandering animals recorded on beaches where they cam...
