Seals Study Resumes In Bering Sea Expedition
The U S Fish and Wildlife Service resumes fur seal research with the Black Douglas on a north Pacific voyage to study migration and feeding of Alaskan fur seals. Dr Victor B Scheffer leads a 15 man crew to Pribilof Islands to tag seals and analyze stomach contents for commercial fish prey. The mission also surveys orcas, hair seals, sea lions and otters, while tracking seasonal movements toward winter waters. The fur seal herd has grown from 132 279 in 1910 to about 3 386 000 in 1946 and is valued above 100 million dollars.
