Federico Albert: apreciaciones sobre la caza y pesca de los lobos marinos en los territorios australes de Chile, 1901
2018
This paper analyzes the contributions of Federico Albert to the discussion about the benefits and prejudices of the Fishing Regulation No 1.623 that ruled the sealing industry in the seas and coasts of Chile between 1892 and 1904 through two works: “The seals in Chile” and “The pinnipeds of Chile”, published in 1901 in the Chilean Journal of Natural History of the Natural History Museum of Valparaiso and in the Annals of University of Chile, respectively. It is concluded that, as a scientist and civil servant, Albert was essential to look for new alternatives to protect these sea mammals at the beginning of the XX Century.
