Tailor regions to fur seal foraging
• Telemetry data: fur seals go further
• Breeding sites have separate foraging habitats
• Most fur seals have high site fidelity but some individuals do change foraging route

Model set up
• Fish cold years: average of 1999, 2006, 2007 • Fish warm years: average 2003, 2004, 2005 • NFS cold year diets 1002, 1994, 1995 • NFS warm year diets: 1996, 1997, 1998 • # of NFS scats: 142-438 for region/temp combo

summary
• there are clear differences across foraging habitats interaction with other pollock consumers is different across foraging habitats differences across foraging habitats prevail between cold/warm years same action will have different effect on the foraging habitats and breeding sites
