"These seals appear to have died a few days ago, so they're in a state of decomposition so we're trying to see how much information we can gain from those," she said.

"[We have found] no immediate signs of injury from the seals we've looked at so far."

New Zealand fur seals are a protected species found along Australia's south coast and along the coast of New Zealand's South Island.

They can grow to weigh up to 250 kilograms, but males usually average about 125kg and are considered docile, although they will attack if provoked.
