Sources of human-related injury and mortality for U.S. Pacific west coast marine mammal stock assessments, 2011-2015

"This report contains human-caused injury and mortality records of pinnipeds and cetaceans that occur in U.S. west coast waters for the period 2011-2015, for those species evaluated in Pacific region marine mammal stock assessment reports (SARs) (Carretta et al. 2016a). Mortality records, while included in this report, were not a part of the SI/NSI status evaluation that included only live animals. Subsistence and directed takes (i.e., gray whales taken by Russian natives) are not reported here but are reported in SARs published by NMFS. Previous records, including cases from 2007 through 2010, are published in previous reports (Carretta et al. 2013, 2014, 2015b, 2016b)"--Summary.
