Southern resident killer whale : a science based review of recovery actions for three at-risk whale populations.: Fs49-12/2-2017E-PDF

"This review will provide a summary of the achievements to date on addressing the Recovery Measures for southern resident killer whales and will provide an assessment of their overall effectiveness in terms of their ability to abate threats to recovery of the population. Research-based measures, while they do not directly abate threats, are also acknowledged for their role in addressing knowledge gaps in order to clarify the mechanism by which a threat impacts the population. This document also aims to identify how recovery can be better achieved by accelerating implementation of Recovery Measures not yet underway, by identifying new measures if needed, and by providing guidance on the relative priority of Recovery Measures required to promote recovery"--Objective of this review, p. 3.
