There are only a few North Atlantic Right Whales (Eubalaena glacialis) left on the planet and their struggle to survive is being watched closely by Dr. Tim Frasier from St. Mary's University. The obstacles that small groups of animals encounter on the road to recovery are not well known.

For North Atlantic Right Whales recovery is not a simple task.
