With fewer than 400 right whales remaining, such entanglement poses a significant threat to their survival. After being spotted in Cape Cod Bay, rescue teams attempted to assist by removing some gear, but the whale remains partially entangled. Despite ongoing monitoring and efforts to help, the situation is dire, leading experts to believe that survival chances are minimal for #5110.
The entanglement of the young North Atlantic right whale is considered "likely lethal," highlighting the critical threats these animals face from fishing gear.
