Alaska’s Iliamna Lake Harbor Seals Genetically Isolated from Entire Pacific Ocean
Florida Atlantic University

Alaska’s Iliamna Lake harbor seals have been difficult to study because of their remoteness. They weren’t even identified as harbor seals until 2013. Now, a new genetic study has found significant differences, indicating that the Iliamna seals may represent a unique, endemic form of harbor seal. Findings suggest they may be evolutionarily, reproductively, and demographically distinct from other Pacific harbor seal populations sampled across the Pacific, including Japan, the Commander Islands, other parts of Alaska, and California.
