Threats He suffered persecution due to four causes: living close to shore, floated when dead, swim slowly and have a higher fat layer (representing 36-45 of the total) than any other species. The main threats are looming on the species present are: Collisions with ships: 7 had marks of injuries caused by ship propellers and about 20 of mortality due to collisions with ships (Kraus, 1990). 45 deaths recorded in the period 1970-1999, 35.5 were due to collisions with boats (Knowlton and Kraus, 2001). The high survivability of this species makes it difficult to dive in response to the approach of a vessel. Besides their ability to maneuver during ascent to the surface is limited (Nowacek et al., 2001). Entanglement in fishing gear, with 57 of the marks have been tangled in fishing gear and between 12 and 6.7 mortality due to this cause according to two studies (Kraus, 1990) (Kenney and Kraus , 1993). Since 1986, 61 individuals have been observed with networks in their bodies, which have confirmed his death in at least six individuals (Moore et al., 2007). Small population: analysis of DNA has been found that the gene is reduced, suggesting that there are lower rates...
