Towards population-level conservation in the critically endangered Antarctic blue whale: the number and distribution of their populations.

Scientific reports - 8 Mar 2016

Attard Catherine R M, Beheregaray Luciano B, Möller Luciana M

Abstract excerpt

Population-level conservation is required to prevent biodiversity loss within a species, but it first necessitates determining the number and distribution of populations. Many whale populations are still depleted due to 20th century whaling. Whales are one of the most logistically difficult and expensive animals to study because of their mobility, pelagic lifestyle and often remote habitat. We tackle the question...
