DNA evidence for historic population size and past ecosystem impacts of gray whales.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 18 Sept 2007

Alter S Elizabeth, Rynes Eric, Palumbi Stephen R

Abstract excerpt

Ecosystem restoration may require returning threatened populations of ecologically pivotal species to near their former abundances, but it is often difficult to estimate historic population size of species that have been heavily exploited. Eastern Pacific gray whales play a key ecological role in their Arctic feeding grounds and are widely thought to have returned to their prewhaling abundance. Recent mortality...
