Strawberry Isle Research Projects:
Sea Lion Rocks Survey

These rocks are in the heart of Pacific Rim National Park, Long Beach Unit. In the fall of '96 we started a monthly species (Eumetopias jubatus and Zalophus californianus) count in an effort to establish that these rocks are a shared use haul-out. This data is delivered to Parks Canada and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. Information on tagged animals is forwarded to the appropriate agencies.
