Description:

The North Pacific right whale (NPRW; Eubalaena japonica) is one of the most endangered whale species (Brownell et al. 2001; Young et al. 2024). It comprises genetically distinct western and eastern populations (Pastene et al. 2022), both of which were decimated by legal and illegal whaling in the 19th and 20th centuries (Ivashchenko and Clapham 2012, Ivaschchenko, Clapham and Brownell 2017, Shelden et al. 2005). Today, the endangered western population is believed to number in the hundreds (Pastene et al. 2022), while the Critically Endangered eastern population numbers less than 50 (Cooke and Clapham 2018; Wade et al. 2011).
