Description

Hauling out behavior and foraging behavior of walruses on St. Matthew Island were investigated. Walruses hauled out at two sites on St. Matthew throughout the summer of 1982. Their use of the uglit was cyclic and regular, but each ugli had a different period, and both differed from periods of walrus use at Round Island. Proximity and richness of food resources were suggested as important factors affecting periods of cycles.
