Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat science advisory report, 1919-5087 2015/043, Pacific Region Issued also in French under title: Tendances relatives à l'abondance et à la répartition de la loutre de mer (Enhydra lutris) en Colombie-Britannique mises à jour d'après les résultats du relevé de 2013. "July 2015." Includes bibliographical references. The results of the 2013 survey indicate that the sea otter population in BC continued to grow and its distribution continued to expand since previously surveyed, with sub-regional population growth patterns that are typical of recovering sea otter populations. Annual growth rates were much lower in long occupied sub-regions of Vancouver Island and the central mainland coast, than in more recently occupied sub-regions, presumably reflecting density dependence. gccst Endangered species gccst Aquatic animals gccst Mammals gccst Fisheries management Canada.
