Mating system and reproductive success in eastern Pacific harbour seals.

Molecular ecology - 1 Sept 2006

Hayes Sean A, Pearse Devon E, Costa Daniel P, Harvey James T, Le Boeuf Burney J, Garza John Carlos

Abstract excerpt

Harbour seals sometimes breed along inland travel corridors where females become clustered in space and time and males establish underwater acoustic display territories similar to terrestrial arenas known as resource-based leks. Under these conditions, we predicted that higher levels of polygyny would be observed than has been previously reported for this species mating in open coast environments without travel...
