We analyzed 28 years of North Atlantic right whale photo‐identification, health, and entanglement assessments to estimate the impacts of fishing gear entanglements on female right whale fecundity and population trajectory. We developed a hidden Markov model that accounted for key uncertainties regarding each right whale's survival, reproduction ...
