dc.description.abstract | Pinnipeds spend large portions of their lives at sea, submerged, or hauled-out on land, often on remote off-shore
islands. This fundamentally limits access by researchers to critical parts of pinniped life history and has spurred the
development and implementation of a variety of externally attached telemetry devices (ETDs) to collect information
about movement patterns, physiology and ecology of marine animals when they cannot be directly observed.
ETDs are less invasive and easier to apply than implanted internal devices, making them more widely used. However,
ETDs have limited retention times and their use may result in negative short- and long-term consequences including
capture myopathy, impacts to energetics, behavior, and entanglement risk. We identify 15 best practice recommendations
for the use of ETDs with pinnipeds that address experimental justification, animal capture, tag design,
tag attachment, effects assessments, preparation, and reporting. Continued improvement of best practices is critical
within the framework of the Three Rs (Reduction, Refinement, Replacement); these best practice recommendations
provide current guidance to mitigate known potential negative outcomes for individuals and local populations. These
recommendations were developed specifically for pinnipeds; however, they may also be applicable to studies of other
marine taxa. We conclude with four desired future directions for the use of ETDs in technology development, validation
studies, experimental designs and data sharing. | en_US |
