A population estimate of the Sooty Shearwater Puffinus griseus in the Wollaston and Hermite Island Groups, Cape Horn Archipelago, Chile, and concerns over conservation in the area

We documented the population size of Sooty Shearwater on the Wollaston and Hermite Island Groups. A population of at least 100,000 pairs were found on Wollaston and there may be as many as 300,000 pairs in the Wollaston and Hermite Island Groups. We also confirmed the presence of Magellanic Diving-p...
