Introduction
The Olrog’s Gull is a threatened endemic species of the Atlantic coast of Argentina. It has a restricted breeding distributional range, small total population size and a rather specialized feeding ecology, consuming mostly crabs during the breeding season. In winter, part of the population may disperse north, reaching Uruguay and Brazil.
