Abstract
The following comments relate to results in a recent publication (Weller et al., 2014) that are
pertinent to the discussions of the Island Closure Task Team, specifically the impact of fishing around
Robben Island on the penguin population. Three scenarios were explored in that paper, each starting
with 3500 adult penguins.
