Individual necropsy reports. “The present incident report provides the details and conclusions of the investigation into the North Atlantic right whale mortality event experienced in 2017 in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The report focusses primarily on the necropsy findings which were prepared by lead veterinarians affiliated with the Canadian Wildlife Health Cooperative. These findings were analysed collaboratively amongst the lead veterinarians (authors) and in consultation with other North American veterinarians and researchers. The Marine Animal Response Society and Fisheries and Oceans Canada have provided analyses and contextual information relevant to the interpretation of the key findings presented by the lead veterinarians. Given the desire for producing timely findings which are relevant in addressing the North Atlantic right whale mortality event in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, the scope of this report addresses only key relevant information on North Atlantic right whales and human activities which are considered to have played a role in this incident. As such, it is not intended to provide a complete portrait of the North Atlantic right whale population nor of the human activities occurring in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. These findings are meant to provide a basis for the advancement of conservation actions, including decisions in response to this unprecedented mortality event”--Preface, p. iv. gccst Endangered species gccst Whales gccst Death gccst Investigations gccst Nature conservation Daoust, Pierre-Yves, 1951- Canada.
