	note = {This publication covers 14 years of analysis of pinniped feces to determine what the seals and sea lions were eating.  44 species of fish and cephalopod were identified out of over 1,000 samples. {\textquotedblleft} {\textellipsis} [P]innipeds preyed heavily on schooling fishes, such as Pacific whiting and Pacific mackerel for sea lions, and on smelt and herring for harbor seals.  Other species such as rockfish, lamprey, salmonids and flatfish were also commonly taken by pinnipeds.  The variability in prey selection appears to be related to the availability (seasonality) and abundance of prey species at a given location{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract).},
