An animal's body condition will affect its survival and reproductive success, which influences population dynamics. Despite its importance, relatively little is known about the body condition of large whales and its relationship to reproduction.

Status of the world's baleen whales
No global synthesis of the status of baleen whales has been published since the 2008 IUCN Red List assessments. Many populations remain at low numbers from historical commercial whaling, which had ceased for all but a few by 1989.

Whales Before Whaling in the North Atlantic [PDF]
It is well known that hunting dramatically reduced all baleen whale populations, yet reliable estimates of former whale abundances are elusive. Based on coalescent models for mitochondrial DNA sequence variation, the genetic diversity of North Atlantic whales suggests population sizes of approximately 240,000 humpback, 360,000 fin, and 265,000 minke ...

Mysticete migration revisited: are Mediterranean fin whales an anomaly?
Mammal Review, 2016The generally accepted model of Mysticete whale migration is that most individuals undertake seasonal migrations between high and low latitudes. Although numerous exceptions have been described in the literature, the traditional model remains unexamined.

How Baleen Whales Feed: The Biomechanics of Engulfment and Filtration.
Annual Review of Marine Science, 2017Baleen whales are gigantic obligate filter feeders that exploit aggregations of small-bodied prey in littoral, epipelagic, and mesopelagic ecosystems. At the extreme of maximum body size observed among mammals, baleen whales exhibit a unique combination ...

Whales and the whaling industry
Long Range Planning, 1975Abstract This article examines the background of the Whaling Industry. The author outlines a viewpoint on the activities of the industry which relevant long range planners need to take into consideration. The problem of potential extinction of certain varieties is one which cannot be ignored from the humane, economic or heritage viewpoints.
