<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">North Atlantic right whales are dying faster than they can reproduce. With around 330 remaining, these great whales rarely die of natural causes. Join the New Bedford Whaling Museum as we learn how to save the
species amongst the most challenging forces in <i>The Last of the Right Whales</i> film, produced and directed by Nadine Pequeneza of HitPlay Productions. If you have not yet attended a screening of this engaging documentary, we encourage to you to join us
for both the film and the discussion to follow. Our three panelists - a researcher, a gear designer, and a lobsterman - bring their personal and professional perspectives to the post-film discussion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
