Recovered gear analysis of North Atlantic right whale Eg #4545.: Fs23-712/2023E-PDF
"The Center for Coastal Studies response team removed approximately 96 m of rope and a single buoy from the 8-year-old female in Cape Cod Bay during disentanglement efforts on March 28 and April 4, 2023. Analysis of recovered gear was jointly undertaken by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) and the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on April 18, 2023. Three occurrences of interlaced segments of orange and yellow twines existed on the same section of rope along the length of the recovered rope. This is consistent with Canadian Snow Crab Fishing Area 12 coloured gear markings for buoy lines and does not match any US gear markings. Conclusion of gear origin: Canadian Snow Crab Area 12 (southern Gulf of St. Lawrence)"--Executive summary.
