🔍 Key Concepts

• Marine Mammal Protection regulations for endangered species • Special stand-off distances for North Atlantic Right Whales (sometimes called Northern Right Whales) • Penalties and enforcement for violating whale-approach limits

💭 Think About

• Is the required stand-off distance for a critically endangered large whale species likely to be relatively small or relatively large? • Think about common caution zones used in whale-watching regulations—what distance is often cited to minimize disturbance and collision risk? • Among the answer choices, which distance best reflects a strong protective buffer for a slow-moving, surface-feeding whale?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that you are thinking of federally protected endangered species rules, not just general safe-seamanship practice • Mentally compare the choices to typical small-boat lengths (e.g., a 25–50 ft vessel) to visualize how far away the law likely requires you to stay • Ask yourself which option would most reasonably reduce the risk of ship strikes and acoustic disturbance for a slow, surface-dwelling whale
