Assessment rationale/justification
There are currently about 700 mature bison of this subspecies in three free-ranging herds and about 250 semi-captive mature bison in Elk Island National Park. The largest free-ranging herd, in the Pink Mountain area of BC, is outside the historical range of this subspecies. The population in Prince Albert National Park is increasing by about 10% a year. The greatest problem facing these bison in Canada is the lack of habitat, due to conversion to agriculture and urbanization. Additional threats include domestic cattle disease and the risk of genetic pollution from escaped ranched bison, including some that may carry cattle genes. The total number of free-ranging and semi-captive mature bison of this subspecies is just under 1000, and there are fewer than 5 populations.; Il y a actuellement environ 700 bisons matures de cette sous-espèce dans trois hardes en liberté et environ 250 bisons adultes en semi captivité dans le parc national Elk Island. La plus grande harde en liberté, dans la région du mont Pink de la Colombie-Britannique, se trouve à l'extérieur de l'aire de répartition historique de cette sous espèce. La population dans le parc national Prince Albert augmente d'environ 10 p. 100 par an. Le plus grave problème de ces bisons au Canada est le manque d'habitat attribuable à la conversion des terres à des fins d'agriculture et d'urbanisation. Les menaces additionnelles comprennent les maladies des bovins d'élevage et le risque de pollution génétique des bisons d'élevage qui se sont échappés, y compris certains bisons qui peuvent être porteurs de gènes de bovin. Le nombre total de bisons matures de cette sous-espèce en liberté et en semi-captivité atteint un peu moins de 1 000 individus, et il y a moins de cinq populations.

Assessment rationale/justification
Although there have not been sightings of this species in the last 50 years in Canadian waters, there have been sightings both south and north of British Columbia waters. Therefore it is not appropriate to classify the species as extirpated. The total population in the eastern North Pacific likely numbers a few tens of animals.; Bien que cette espèce n'ait pas été observée au cours des 50 dernières années dans les eaux canadiennes, elle a été observée au sud et au nord des eaux de la Colombie-Britannique. Il n'est donc pas approprié de désigner cette espèce come étant disparue. Le total des individus de la population de l'est du Pacifique Nord s'établirait à quelques dizaines de baleines.

Assessment rationale/justification
Grey whales migrate each year from their winter calving grounds in Mexico to their summer feeding areas in northern Alaska, Russia and Canada. Most of the population passes along the BC coastline, and some individuals repeatedly spend the entire summer feeding in BC (about 80). The population increased by 2.5% per year following the cessation of whaling, and peaked, within the range of pre-exploitation estimates, at about 27,000 animals in 1998. The extent of recovery of the summer resident group is unknown. However, over one-third of the population died from 1998 to 2002 (possibly due to a lack of food in Alaska). Birth rates, survival rates and other indicators suggest that the decline has ceased and that the population is stable or increasing since 2002. The whales are susceptible to human activities in their 4 breeding lagoons in Mexico, as well as to entanglement in fishing gear and collisions with boats throughout their range. Underwater noise associated with proposed oil development in BC could alter migration patterns. The small group of summer-resident whales could also be threatened by subsistence whaling in the USA.; Les baleines grises migrent chaque année de leur aires hivernales de mise bas au Mexique à leurs aires d'alimentation estivales dans le nord de l'Alaska, de la Russie et du Canada. La majeure partie de la population passe le long de la cà´te de la Colombie-Britannique, et certains individus reviennent tous les étés en Colombie-Britannique pour se nourrir (environ 80). Cette population a connu une augmentation de 2,5 p. 100 par année à la suite de la clà´ture de la chasse à la baleine, et elles ont atteint leur nombre le plus élevé, soit à des niveaux comparables à ceux existants avant l'exploitation, d'environ 27 000 individus en 1998. La possibilité de rétablissement du groupe résident estival est inconnue. Cependant, plus d'un tiers de la population est décédée entre 1998 et 2002 (possiblement en raison du manque de nourriture en Alaska). Les taux de natalité, les taux de survie et d'autres indicateurs laissent entendre que le déclin a cessé et que la population est stable ou à la hausse depuis 2002. Ces baleines sont vulnérables aux activités humaines dans leurs quatre lagunes de reproduction au Mexique, ainsi qu'à l'enchevêtrement dans les engins de pêche et aux collisions avec des navires dans l'ensemble de leur aire de répartition. Les bruits sous l'eau associés à l'exploitation d'hydrocarbures proposée en Colombie-Britannique pourraient modifier les trajets de migration. Le petit groupe estival de baleines résidentes pourrait également être menacé par la chasse à la baleine de subsistance aux États-Unis.

Assessment rationale/justification
The Baffin Bay population appears to be large (~45,000), although there is uncertainty about numbers, trends, life history parameters, and levels of sustainable hunting. There is similar uncertainty about the much smaller Hudson Bay population (~2,100 mature individuals). Hunting for maktak and the commercially valuable tusk ivory represents the most consistent threat to narwhals. Potential effects of changes in ice coverage caused by climate trends are unknown. The Hudson Bay population could decline by 30% in 30 years if hunting is not closely regulated. Similarly, the Baffin Bay population could be affected if hunting in Greenland is not effectively managed. Numbers removed by hunting increased during the 1990s. Community-based management is monitoring hunting and is attempting to regulate removals. Reliable information about numbers that are killed and not recovered is difficult to obtain.; La population de la baie de Baffin semble grande (environ 45 000 individus), bien qu'il y ait des incertitudes quant au nombre d'individus, aux tendances et à certains paramètres du cycle biologique, ainsi qu'au nombre de prises pour assurer une chasse à des niveaux durables. Il y a aussi des incertitudes pour ce qui est de la population beaucoup plus petite de la baie d'Hudson (environ 2100 individus matures). La chasse pour le maktak et l'ivoire, qui a une grande valeur sur le marché, représente une menace des plus constantes pour le narval. Les effets éventuels du changement dans la couverture de glace, causé par les tendances climatiques, sont inconnus. La population de la baie d'Hudson pourrait connaà®tre un déclin de 30 p. 100 en 30 ans si la chasse ne fait pas l'objet d'une réglementation stricte. De façon semblable, la population de la baie de Baffin pourrait être touchée par la chasse au Groenland si elle n'est pas gérée efficacement. Le nombre d'individus tués par la chasse a augmenté au cours des années 1990. La gestion par les communautés permet de surveiller la chasse et de trouver des solutions pour réglementer les prises. Une information fiable sur le nombre d'individus tués et non récupérés est difficile à obtenir.

All signs indicate that the population residing in Ungava Bay is very small and may be extirpated. However, it is difficult to definitively conclude that they have been extirpated because beluga from other populations may visit Ungava Bay. Hunting caused the population decline and continues in Ungava Bay, posing a threat to any remaining beluga.; Tous les signes indiquent que la population résidente de la baie d'Ungava est très faible et peut-être disparue du pays. Cependant, il est difficile de conclure sans aucun doute qu'elle a disparu du pays, car les bélugas d'autres populations peuvent se rendre à la baie d'Ungava. La chasse a causé le déclin de la population, et ce déclin se poursuit dans la baie d'Ungava, ce qui pose une menace pour tout béluga restant.
