A report on the sea otter, Enhydra lutris L., in California
This report discusses in detail findings and observationsof 5 years of research on the sea otter population and itsrelationship to the nearshore marine environment in California. Initial efforts were directed at providing some relief to the commercial abalone fishery in the Cambria - Point Estero area north of Morro Bay. This fishery has subsequently collapsed along with other commercial and sport abalone and sport crab fisheries throughout the sea otter's range due to continued sea otter foraging. Capturing, tagging and translocation studies, censusing studies, examination of sea otter remains, habitat surveys, food habits observations and studies on otters in captivity provide a broad base of information on the expandingsea otter population in California and its effects onresources utilized by man. Recommendations for sea ottermanagement consistent with esthetic, recreational, and commercial uses of marine resources are included in this report. (95pp.)
