N2 - Since the late 1990s, Bardsey Island has been the focus of research on the local breeding population of grey seals, Halichoerus grypus, and on the cetaceans using the surrounding waters. Here we provide a brief overview of this research to date, including details of some resulting recent substantive contributions to the scientific literature, and look to the future at a time when funding for wildlife research is diminishing, whilst industrial activity at sea escalates.
