Too Many Whale Deaths

Environmental Economics: Whale economics: "More than 8 in 10 deaths of right whales may be going undiscovered"

These undiscovered whale deaths must be resolved. There are only an estimated 350 right whales to be present in the North Atlantic.

They must determine what the reason for the deaths are, and find solutions that properly address the issue.

Iceland and Norway are both nations that are involved in commercial whaling... how much of the unreported deaths might be because of these nations? This article doesn't say. Nor does it say if they even have a part in this, it doesn't give any potential reasons.

Hopefully good solutions that will resolve the problem are made.
