A review of information relevant to the issue of consumption of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) by seal species in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence / M. Hammill … [et al.]. : Fs70-1/1999-70E-PDF
Over the last 10 years, the progressive increase of seal populations and the low abundance of groundfish populations has raised concerns of the impact of seal predation on these populations and in particular on Atlantic cod. Four species of seals are common throughout Atlantic Canada waters. These four species: grey seals (Halichoerus grypus), harbour seals (Phoca vitulina), harp seals (Phoca groenlandica) and hooded seals (Cystophora cristata) are all found in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence. This paper is a review of the available information relevant to the issue of consumption of cod in the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence by these four species.
