Vanishing #whale's decline worse than previously thought, feds say
The North Atlantic #rightwhale numbers less than 350, and it has been declining in population for several years. The federal government declared the whale’s decline an “unusual mortality event,” which means an unexpected and significant die-off, in 2017.
#NOAA reports 114 of the #whales have been documented as dead, seriously injured or sub-lethally injured or sick since the start of the mortality event. https://apnews.com/article/right-whale-deaths-injuries-worse-extinction-233c3d63269db2f121bf6f334ba19e6d
