Accepted, Mammal Review SC/59/ForInfo 1 Past and present distribution, densities and movements of blue whales in the Southern Hemisphere and adjacent waters

1. Blue whale locations in the Southern Hemisphere and northern Indian Ocean were obtained from catches (303,239), sightings (4,383 records of ≥8,058 whales), strandings (103), Discovery marks (2,191) and recoveries (95), and acoustic recordings. 2. Sighting surveys included 7,480,450 km of effort p...
