We work with fishermen, industry, non-government organizations, and academia to find approaches and strategies for reducing bycatch in U.S. fisheries.Collisions between whales and large vessels often go unnoticed and unreported, even though whales can be injured or killed, and vessels can sustain damage. These whales were once the target of extensive hunting, and by early in the 20th century they were in serious danger of extinction.Today gray whales are protected by international law, and their numbers have grown. It is a highly migratory whale that lives in cold seas in summer when it restocks its blubber reserves, and winters in the south for the breeding and calving season.

Close Encounters With Bajas Gray Whales.

Lacking a dorsal fin, they instead have a dorsal hump about two-thirds of the way back on the body, and a series of 6 to 12 small bumps, called “knuckles”, between the dorsal hump and the tail flukes. The Grays are continuing to make their migration southbound along with their new born calves.

The ban on commercial gray whale catches has continued since the late 1940s under the International Whaling Commission. The data time series for abundance estimation extends from 1967 to 2020 and most recently has integrated use of fixed-wing UAS platforms and infrared cameras to aid visual observers. It is listed as endangered under the ESA and depleted under the MMPA.NOAA Fisheries Southwest Fisheries Science Center conducts regular surveys of eastern North Pacific gray whale abundance and calf production. In March 2012, scientists from NOAA Fisheries Southwest Fisheries Science Center and Mexican collaborators deployed small satellite dart tags on adult gray whales to monitor their fine-scale migration route through the coastal waters off Baja California, Mexico, and southern California.A gray whale off the coast of Alaska. After 8 years the young gray whales will reach sexually maturity and can begin mating and reproducing.
