Pinnipeds are a fascinating group of marine mammals that play a
crucial role as apex predators and sentinels of the functioning and
health of marine ecosystems. They are found in the most extreme
environments from the Polar regions to the tropics. Pinnipeds are
comprised of about 34 species, and of those at least 25% live
permanently in tropical zones. This book reviews and updates
current research on the biology, marine ecology, bio-monitoring,
and conservation of tropical pinniped populations, including their
behavior, anthropogenic stressors, and health. It also looks at
challenges to be faced for the conservation of tropical pinnipeds,
many of which are threatened species.
