Dear Marmamers, I have recently been given a comprehensive photo ID catalogue for the weddell seal population based in Larsen Harbour, South Georgia. This is the most northerly breeding weddell seal colony, and the only weddell seals known to breed on land as opposed to ice..
The catalogue was compiled by Kicki Erikson, of the yacht Wanderer 3 which has been on South Georgia for 2 years, and conducted a census of the Larsen Harbour weddell seals during the 2010 breeding season. The catalogue includes 29 individuals, with 20 females and 9 males. Kicki has asked me if I know anyone who may be interested in the catalogue but no one springs to mind, so I thought I would post it on MARMAM. If anyone would like a copy of the catalogue (or knows of someone that might), please email me at [email protected] with a postal address and I will send a disc of the images to you (since it is too large to be sent electronically.
