SEAL LIFE ON THE PRIBILOF ISLANDS. 33 
Upper Zapadnie.—The view from Station 8 is too distant for satisfae- 
tory comparison, but reduced numbers are apparent. In photographs 
9 and 10 it will be noticed that some old bulls in the rear of the rook- 
eries were unable to form harems, and in photograph 10 the continuity 
of the patch of seals near the sea is broken. In general there has been 
a shrinkage in territory and a marked reduction in numbers.

North rookery.—Photograph 2 illustrates, on a small scale, the absorp- 
tion of the small harems in the rear into the main body of the rookery 
nearer the sea—the result of lessened numbers. This ground, when 
counted July 18, contained 110 females. 
Little East rookery.—There is here a decrease and a shrinkage in area, 
indicated to some extent in the photograph. 
East rookery.—A very perceptible reduction in numbers. 
Starry Arteel rookery.—A great reduction in numbers, with conse- 
quent abandonment of the high ground in the rear. 
Zapadnie rookery.—The change here is shown on the chart. The 
rookery has diminished in numbers and extent. The present condition 
of the rookery is well shown by a new photograph from Station H.
