Why the population of the northern fur seals (Callorhinus ursinus) of Tyuleniy Island does not recover following the harvest ban: Analysis of 56 years of observation data
Following many years of managed harvest, the population size of Northern fur seal on Tyuleniy Island appeared to be depressed. In order to preserve the population, the harvest was first significantly limited, and then banned altogether. However, the birth rates have never recovered. We perform the e...
