- The size of and trend in the South American sea lion (Otaria flavescens) population located in northern Patagonia were estimated and changes in the distribution, size, and structure of individual sites were analyzed during the period 1983–2002. Total counts were made during the reproductive season. Regression models were used to analyze the trend. Pups represented around 40% of the animals counted. The annual rates of change for pups and nonpups were not significantly different (p > 0.05, n = 7), although some rookeries showed higher rates of change for pups than for nonpups. Pup numbers have been increasing at the rate of 3.4% per year at the oldest rookeries, but the rate of increase was higher at new rookeries. Using Bayes’ methods, the precision of the estimates and the contribution to the abundance of each rookery produced an alternative estimate of the trend in pup numbers in 5.7%. The key in the recovery of this population includes higher survival rates of juveniles combined with increased available habitat for newly reproducing in-dividuals. This process led to the occupancy of new areas for hauling out and breeding. This hypothesis could explain the higher rates of increase in pups in peripheral areas while reproductive rates remain unchanged.
Nous avons estimé la taille et la tendance de la population du lion de mer d’Amérique du Sud (Otaria flavescens) du nord de la Patagonie et nous avons analysé les changements dans la répartition, la taille et la structure des sites individuels de 1983 à 2002. Nous avons fait des dénombrements complets durant la saison de reproduction. Des modèles de régression ont permis d’analyser la tendance. Les petits représentent environ 40 % des animaux dénombrés. Les taux annuels de changement pour les petits et les autres lions de mer ne diffèrent pas significativement (p > 0,05, n = 7), bien que dans certaines échouries les taux de changements sont plus élevés pour les petits que pour les autres. Le nombre de petits augmente au taux de 3,4 % par année dans les échouries les plus anciennes et le taux est encore plus élevé dans les nouvelles échoueries. Au moyen de méthodes bayésiennes, la précision des estimations et la contribution de chaque échouerie à l’abondance ont généré une nouvelle estimation de la tendance dans le nombre de petits de l’ordre de 5,7 %. Le facteur essentiel de la récupération de cette population est un taux de survie plus élevé des jeunes combiné à la disponibilité d’habitats pour les individus qui débutent leur reproduction. Ce processus a eu comme conséquence l’occupation de nouveaux sites pour l’échouage et la reproduction. Cette hypothèse pourrait expliquer les taux plus élevés d’accroissement des petits dans les zones périphériques, alors que les taux de reproduction demeurent inchangés.
