Monitoring beluga harvests in the Mackenzie Delta and near Paulatuk, NT, Canada : harvest efficiency and trend, size and sex of landed whales, and reproduction, 1970-2009 / by L.A. Harwood, M.C.S. Kingsley,... : Fs97-4/3059E-PDF
Standardized, hunter-based monitoring of the annual subsistence harvest of beluga whales in the Mackenzie River delta was initiated in 1980, and here we extend and expand analyses to include reproductive data and standardized sampling from 2000-2009. Harvest monitoring has continued annually without interruption in the three main harvesting areas of the Mackenzie River delta since 1980 (Shallow Bay, Kendall Island, and Kugmallit Bay, collectively ‘the Delta’), and near Paulatuk, NT, since 1989. The program has provided three decades of data on the timing of the harvest and biological data on whales landed, and four decades of data on the size and efficiency of the hunt. Standard length, gender, age, colour, and presence/absence of stomach contents have been recorded from 90-110 belugas each year since 1980.
