title: Clinical blood values of the northern fur seal, Callorhinus ursinus.
abstract: Clinical blood values are reported for 14 blood components in the northern fur seal (Callorhinus ursinus) and compared with human clinical ranges. Certain values such as cholesterol, globulins and blood urea nitrogen deviate markedly from published human values. The distribution of serum proteins in fur seals, man and northern elephant seals also are given and compared.
