Foraging behavior of juvenile steller sea lions in the Gulf of Alaska

Schrader, Wendy Jane 17 September 2007 (has links)
Relating the behavior of predators to prey density is an important aspect of foraging theory. Changes in prey accessibility may have contributed to a greater-than 80% decline in Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) throughout the western portion of their range during the last 30 years. A new method was developed for inferring prey accessibility to juveniles of this otariid, from observable features of diving and ranging behavior. Seventeen juveniles (9F, 8M) were monitored in multiple seasons and locations in the Gulf of Alaska via satellite telemetry. Twelve of the 17 had experienced 1-3 months of temporary captivity. Effects of temporary captivity on endurance, habitat use and development of diving and ranging behavior were tested. Diving and ranging patterns of previously captive juveniles were consistent with data reported for freeranging juveniles. Development in mean dive depth and duration after release was likely due to increased foraging. "Focus in time spent at depth" was tested as a proxy for prey accessibility using predictions based on foraging theory. 'Focus...' was defined as vertical concentration in dive distribution and was calculated by comparing the observed time spent at depth with an expected distribution. There was significantly more focus in summer than winter, and more focus at depth (>62 m) in winter. Focus at depth was significantly greater during midday for juveniles monitored in winter. Significant negative correlation between maximum focus and trip duration provided the best indication that focus may be related to prey accessibility. Short trips had significantly greater maximum focus than long trips, using a matched-pairs approach. Analysis of focus in time-at-depth data can elucidate small scale interactions between juvenile otariids and their prey. This new method of measuring the dive behavior of otariids can be applied to individual foraging trips and holds promise as a proxy for assessing seasonal, annual and developmental changes in individual prey accessibility.
