2024年发现的两只北大西洋露脊鲸幼崽突出显示了当前在威胁和低出生率情况下的恢复挑战。 Two North Atlantic right whale calves spotted in 2024 highlight ongoing recovery challenges amid threats and low birth rates.

根据空中调查,在2024年剖腹季节,在北卡罗来纳州海洋岛海滩附近和佛罗里达-格鲁吉亚边界附近,在美国东南海岸发现两头新生的北大西洋右鲸。 Two newborn North Atlantic right whales were spotted off the southeastern U.S. coast during the 2024 calving season, one near Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina, and another near the Florida-Georgia border, according to aerial surveys. 由于只剩下不到400人,科学家们强调物种需要至少50个每年出生的婴儿才能恢复,然而去年只出生了11个幼崽。 With fewer than 400 individuals left, scientists stress the species needs at least 50 annual births to recover, yet only 11 calves were born last year. 船舶撞击,渔具纠和息地破坏等威胁仍然存在,促使包括人工智能监测和政策讨论在内的持续保护工作. Threats like ship strikes, fishing gear entanglements, and habitat disruptions persist, prompting ongoing conservation efforts including AI monitoring and policy discussions.
