"The Eclipse Sound narwhal summer stock has been most recently surveyed by Fisheries and Oceans Canada in 2013, producing an estimated stock size of 10,500 (Doniol-Valcroze et al. 2015a, 2015b). This estimate was much lower than the previous estimate of 20,200 narwhals from the 2004 survey (Richard et al. 2010). A photographic aerial survey was flown in August 2016 to update the estimate of this summer stock"--Introduction, page 1.
