Ship strikes kill thousands of whales. A study of hot spots could map out solutions

  • A study identifies global ship and whale collision hot spots, advising measures to prevent deadly strikes threatening species extinction, according to Chloe Robinson.
  • Shipping occurs across 92% of the ranges for humpback, blue, fin, and sperm whales, yet protections are in place for less than 7% of high-risk areas.
  • An estimated 20,000 whales are killed annually from ship strikes, and without protective measures, Arctic waters could become high-risk due to climate change and new shipping routes.
