Lethal entanglement in baleen whales [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2011
Understanding the scenarios whereby fishing gear entanglement of large whales induces mortality is important for the development of mitigation strategies. Here we present a series of 21 cases involving 4 species of baleen whales in the NW Atlantic, describing the available sighting history, necropsy observations, and subsequent data analyses that ...
