Description:

Description: The New Zealand fur seal, Arctocephalus forsteri lives and breeds on the rocky shores of southern New Zealand and its subantarctic islands. Although brought close to extinction by commercial sealers during the nineteenth century, the species has recovered well under protection and is increasing steadily in numbers and expanding its range.
