384 北大西洋的右鲸有15只幼鲸,但船只撞击和缠绕等威胁使物种濒临灭绝。 384 North Atlantic right whales had 15 calves, but threats like ship strikes and entanglements keep the species near extinction.

北大西洋右鲸种群约有384人,今年冬季出生的幼鲸有15只,比近年来略有改善,但仍远远低于每年恢复所需的50只。 A North Atlantic right whale population of about 384 individuals saw 15 calves born this winter, a slight improvement over recent years but still far below the 50 needed annually for recovery. 尽管人口出生率充满希望,但由于船只罢工和渔具缠绕、生殖率低和繁殖女性短缺等持续威胁,该物种仍然受到严重威胁。 Despite the hopeful birth rate, the species remains critically endangered due to ongoing threats like ship strikes and fishing gear entanglements, low reproductive rates, and a shortage of breeding females. 科学家警告说,如果不加强保护和执法,灭绝仍是一个真实的风险,特别是联邦暂停新鲸鱼规则的期限将持续到2028年。 Scientists warn that without stronger protections and enforcement, extinction remains a real risk, especially with a federal moratorium on new whale rules set to last until 2028.
