Ecotypic variation and predatory behavior among killer whales off the eastern Aleutian Islands, Alaska
Manuscript approved for publication 18 April 2006 by the Scientific Editor.
In 1992, flipper tags from fourteen Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) were found in the stomach of a killer whale (Orcinus orca) that had died in Prince William Sound (Heise et al., 2003). This discovery prompted considerable interest and speculation about the role that killer whales may have played in the decline and lack of recovery of Steller sea lions in western Alaska
