Abstract
Confirmation of species and sex, as well as description of morphometric characteristics, age class, stomach contents, reproductive status, and entrapment-related pathology are described for five New Zealand sea lions (Phocarctos hookeri) and one fur seal (Arctocephalus forsteri) returned from the SQU6T fishery in the 2007-08 fishing season. All were caught between 28 February and 26 April 2008. Two adult male New Zealand sea lions were also returned from the Southern blue whiting fishery, one caught in September 2007 (SB08-06Ph) and one in September 2008 (SB08-10Ph).
