#SouthernRightWhale #population growth has stalled, scientists say, with a possible 'onset of a decline'.
Australia's southern right whale population growth has #stalled, raising questions about the recovery of a species that was nearly driven to #extinction by historical #whaling, according to a new study.

The southern right whale species had the unfortunate habit of going close to shore, making them easy pickings for whalers. After the practice was banned, their population bounced back â but researchers say something disturbing is happening to their numbers.

#SouthernRightWhale numbers increase in #GreatAustralianBight #MarinePark but new threats emerge.
"With the increase in #whales in our oceans & the increase in marine-based industries â including recreation, tourism, #oil & #gas, offshore renewables and shipping â the threats the species face also grow."
STOP RELEASE OF EXPLORATION ACREAGE AT SEA FOR FOSSIL FUEL EXPANSION
At sea, iconic places like #Ningaloo and the #GreatAustralianBight need to be protected and not sacrificed to the #FossilFuel industry. Damaging their sensitive #ecosystems places protected marine life at risk, like the Australian #SeaLion and #SouthernRightWhale. The #AustralianGovernment must stop the mindless release of exploration acreage at sea for fossil fuel expansion.

My sister sent me this glorious sight⊠a #SouthernRightWhale frolicking offshore (300 metres / 1000 foot), at #Portland in the Stateâs south-west region.
She told me this whale was active, just like this, for around 20 minutes, prior to sunset yesterday evening.
Southern right whales inhabit oceans south of the Equator and in 2009 the global population was estimated to be in the region of only 14,000. Source: wiki.
