An island has 12 fur seal rookeries (breeding places). To estimate the fur seal pup population in Rookery A, 4179 fur seal pups were tagged in early August. In late August, a sample of 1000 pups was observed, and 236 of these were found to have been previously tagged. Use a proportion to estimate the total number of fur seal pups in Rookery A The estimated total number of fur seal pups in Rookery A is (Round to the nearest whole number.)
