FOREST AND BIRD has proposed a marine mammal sanctuary around the Auckland Islands to protect the threatened Hooker's sea lion. Top carnivores in the food chain, sea lions play a key role in the ecology of the Southern Ocean. If squid trawling within the 60-mile limit is allowed to continue, these superb swimmers may gradually slide to extinction. Photo: kim Westerskov
