		The main problem areas for this fur seal are: increased pollution with pesticides and heavy metals of its habitat, increased disturbance and the high level of net entanglement cases.
		The Australian population was originally described as to belong to Arctocephalus doriferus (which is now a subspecies of Arctocephalus pusillus), but later it was realized that this animal was similar to the New Zealand fur seal, described as Arctocephalus forsteri.

		The Subantarctic fur seal, Arctocephalus tropicalis, is found on temperate islands in the South Atlantic and Indian Oceans north of the Antarctic Polar Front.
		Because of the long foraging trips, lactating females have been known to travel up to 530 km from their breeding islands near oceanographic frontal zones where food availability may be greater.
		The Subantarctic fur seal, Arctocephalus tropicalis, was hunted almost to extinction in the 19th century for its fur.

		Although the South American fur seal, Arctocephalus australis, lives in the same area, there seems to be little interaction or competition.
		Pups are commonly attacked by the leopard seal, Hydrurga leptonyx, while all age groups are predated upon by sharks and the killer whale.
		Several pinniped species live in the same area, such as the New Zealand fur seal, Arctocephalus forsteri, the leopard seal, Hydrurga leptonyx, and the Southern elephant seal, Mirounga leonina, but there seems to be no interaction.

		The Antarctic fur seal, Arctocephalus gazella (Peters, 1875), (also known as the Kerguelen and Southern fur seal) like other fur seals are distinguished by the presence of external ears and their ability to use their flippers to prop themselves up into a "standing" position.
		Adult males of this species measure 1.6-2 m in length and weigh between 90-210 kg, averaging 188 kg.
		Pup mortality over the first year of life has been calculated at 24% and is greater on the denser breeding beaches.
