Due to the small population size of North Atlantic right whales (~300 plus or minus 10%) and the low annual reproductive rate of about every five years‚ suggests that anthropogenic activities affecting mortality may be more prevalent for right whale population growth than for any other whale species.

The Malthusian model was developed two centuries ago by a man named Thomas Malthus. Malthus’s model is based upon a relationship between both population growth as well as economic development. Empirical studies now-a-days show that the population theory model is quite flawed because of many factors
