Check out our new elephant seal rookery population! They are being tagged with flipper tags which allows them to be tracked throughout their lives. The best way to protect elephant seals is to understand their movement and behavior. Vandenberg AFB and California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, CA, have been working closely and under the authorization from the National Marine Fisheries Service on Northern elephant seals research for the past four years.
