HMSRP Hawaiian Monk Seal Tag Data

Published by Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: May 10, 2026 at 05:53 AM | Dataset Last Updated: January 01, 1981 at 12:00 AM
This data set contains records for all tags applied to Hawaiian monk seals since 1981. These tags were applied by PSD personnel and cooperating scientists as part of the ongoing monk seal population assessment efforts. In addition, this data set contains tagging records for all seals that were tagged by USFWS in earlier years, and still present in the population when the current research effort began. These tagging records extend as far back as 1967. The remainder of the USFWS tagging data (data for seals that disappeared prior to the inception of the Hawaiian Monk Seal Research Program) are housed at PIFSC in paper form.
