Excerpt from A Biological Survey of the Pribilof Islands, Alaska: I. Birds and Mammals; II. Insects, Arachnids, and Chilopods The Pribilof Islands consist of five small islands situated in Bering Sea, in latitude 57 north and longitude 170° west, 200 miles from the nearest lands, being this distance north of the Aleutian Chain and approximately the same distance south of St. Matthew Islands. The largest and best known of the group are St. Paul and St. George, the former, about 13 miles long, with a coast line of 45 miles; and the latter, 12 miles long, with a coast line of 30 miles (pls. II, III, and IV) The smaller islands are all close to St. Paul Walrus, about 6 miles to the east; Otter, about 4 miles to the south; and Sealion Rock, a mere rock close to the south shore (pl. III). The group is of volcanic origin and the shore lines are mainly rocky, in many places precipitous (pl. V). On St. Paul these rough stretches are interrupted by sandy beaches, which often extend for miles; on St. George, the beaches are few in number, and not ex tensive. Back from the shore the land usually rises, gradually slop ing plateaus being surmounted by rocky or sandy eminences, in some cases the craters of extinct volcanoes. These hills are most numer ous on St. Paul, where two attain elevations of 590 and 665 feet, respectively. The highest hill on St. George, Ulekiah, has an eleva tion of 945 feet.

Henry Wood Elliott (1846-1930) was a renowned naturalist and an accomplished artist. In 1872, he was sent to the Alaska territory by the U.S. Treasury department to report on the fur-seal harvest on the Pribilof Islands. He lived on one of the islands and conducted his own study of the animals. Keenly observant and with an artist's eye, he recorded what he saw in both his journals and his artwork. Elliott was appalled by the rapidly declining fur seal population and the wholesale slaughter taking place each summer. The Seal Islands of Alaska is Henry W. Elliott's groundbreaking report as it was published in 1884. He recommended managed hunting to preserve both the species and the industry. He was a tireless wild life advocate and may have saved the fur seal from extinction.
