North Atlantic right whales are critically endangered, with only about 400 individuals remaining. Fatal ship strikes and fishing gear entanglements are primary threats, causing deaths to outnumber births. Oceana Canada advocates for mandatory speed limits in key passages like the Cabot Strait to prevent further fatalities.
Oceana's Ship Speed Watch is an innovative tool that monitors ship speeds and positions in whale habitats along the East Coast. Utilizing AIS data, it displays restriction zones, emphasizing how enforced speed limits can prevent deadly collisions—a leading cause of whale injury and death.
