Figure 2

Movement patterns of Antarctic fur seal pups on Bird Island, South Georgia. (a) Location of the two fur seal breeding colonies, Freshwater Beach (FWB) and the Special Study Beach (SSB), from which pups were tagged with GPS loggers. (b) Decoded states from the HMM showing the inferred activity patterns of 66 pups throughout ontogeny. (c) GPS locations recorded throughout ontogeny for 32 pups born on FWB and 34 pups born on SSB. To aid visibility, each panel is a magnified view of Bird Island (longitude range = − 38.060 − 38.045, latitude range = − 54.014 − 54.005) and consequently, a small proportion of decoded states and GPS points recorded outside this frame are not visible.
