Download A Summary of the Risk Assessment of Threats to New Zealand Sea lions

A Summary of the Risk Assessment of Threats to New Zealand Sea lions’ is a report that describes the work undertaken, as part of the development of a draft Threat Management Plan (TMP), to assess risks to New Zealand sea lions. The risk assessment process used for the development of the TMP aimed to quantify which threats pose most risk to the sea lion population, and inform the prioritisation of management actions that would meet the management goals of the TMP. The approach involved the development of demographic models, compilation of data on threats, a risk triage process and detailed modelling of key threats where sufficient data was available.
