Love the fact Steve Wang is applying modelling methods from #paleontology to provide another estimate of #RightWhale population abundance size. #NARWC2023

Enjoyed attending the North Atlantic Right Whale Consortium Annual Meeting remotely this week. Thanks to Heather Pettis and NARWC for a superbly run hybrid conference. It was inspiring to see all the work done by people dedicated to saving this magnificent species. #narwc2023
