Ecological Insights Into the Extinct Korean Sea Lion (Zalophus japonicus) in Korea Based on Stable Isotope Analysis of Bone Collagen

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 39, Issue 24, 30 December 2025.
ABSTRACT Rationale The Japanese sea lion (Zalophus japonicus), once abundant in Japan, Korea, and Russia, went extinct by the mid‐20th century due to hunting and environmental change. This study examines the diet and ecological role of Korean Z. japonicus using stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis of bone collagen from archaeological and ...

An Accounting of the Sources of Steller Sea Lion, Eumetopias jubatus, Mortality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
During 1991–2000, the west-are additional mortalities that fueled the ern stock of Steller sea lions, Eumetopias decline. We tabulated the levels of reported jubatus, declined at 5.03% (SE = 0.25%) anthropogenic sources of mortality (sub- per year ...

Mixing it up in Alaska: Habitat use of adult female Steller sea lions reveals a variety of foraging strategies

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
From 2010 to 2015, satellite transmitters were deployed on 16 adult female Steller sea lions (AFSSLs; Eumetopias jubatus) in three regions of Alaska because there is limited information regarding the habitat use of this age class during winter and ...

Survey- and fishery-derived estimates of Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) biomass: implications for strategies to reduce interactions between groundfish fisheries and Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Survey- and fishery-derived biomass estimates have indicated that the harvest indices for Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) within a portion of Steller sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus) critical habitat in February and March 2001 were five to 16 times ...

Wanted dead or alive: characterizing likelihood of juvenile Steller sea lion predation from diving and space use patterns

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2019
Understanding linkages between behaviors and mortality risk is critical for managing populations. Juveniles constitute a particularly vulnerable life stage, with growing evidence that within stages, individual strategies may be associated with greater ...

The vomeronasal system of the Steller sea lion

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy
AbstractThe vomeronasal system receives pheromones and kairomones in mammals, and its receptor organ and primary integrative center comprise the vomeronasal organ (VNO) and accessory olfactory bulb (AOB), respectively. Because cetaceans, sirenians, and harbor seals no longer have a vomeronasal system, it might not be important to some marine mammals ...
