Areas where the seals are located on ice or land are visited and photos are taken to be able to count the number of seals. Monitoring of seal populations is carried out on behalf of the Sea and Water Authority and is part of Sweden's marine environmental monitoring. Whether monitoring should be decided on an annual basis.
