Description:"Despite its protected status, the western North Atlantic right whale (Eubalaena glacialis) population remains critically endangered, numbering about 300 individuals. This population's recovery has been hindered by at least three factors: mortality from ship strikes, mortality from entanglement in fishing gear, and, in recent years, a significant decline in reproductive success. A workshop was held in Falmouth, Massachusetts on 26-28 April 2000 to examine the possible causes of reproductive dysfunction in this population (including survival and recruitment of calves) and to develop a feasible research strategy to investigate these factors"--Executive summary.
