cetacean (whale, dolphin and porpoise) species known to occur in the
North-West (NW) Marine Region, which extends three to 200 nautical
miles offshore in Commonwealth waters from Kalbarri up to the
Western Australian {\textendash} Northern Territory border. The region boasts high
species and habitat diversity, numerous threatened and migratory species,
including the world{\textquoteright}s largest but still recovering population of humpback
whales. This report identifies threats to cetacean populations in the region,
highlights conservation needs and makes a number of recommendations
for research and management measures.},
