Weddell Seal Science

A blog about some of the Antarctica Weddell seal population study field research work and outreach efforts during the Weddell seal pupping season in the Erebus Bay region of Antarctica's Ross Sea. Weddell seal images and recordings obtained under NMFS Permit Nos. 1032-1917, 17236, and 21158. More information at http://WeddellSealScience.com

New Weddell Seal Image Sliders

The Weddell seal population study is excited to announce a new outreach project: Interactive Image Sliders! The concept was developed by project multimedia specialist Jeremy Schmidt, (with a tip o' the hat to the the Katmai National Park grizzly bear project). The photos for these sliders were taken by researcher Jesse DeVoe. Because the mass (weight) of Weddell seal moms and pups changes so dramatically during the approximately 35 day nursing period, Image Sliders are a great way to see those changes. Here is a short video by the project's lead scientist, Dr. Jay Rotella, about mom/pup mass transfer while using the new image sliders:
