Its critical habitat, in other words the habitat without which this population would be unable to recover, was presented in 2012 in the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sararegistry.gc.ca\/virtual_sara\/files\/plans\/rs_st_laur_beluga_0312_e.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Beluga Recovery Strategy<\/a>. Critical habitat is bound by the Upper Estuary, the Saguenay River upstream as far as Baie Sainte-Marguerite, and the South Channel in the Lower Estuary. This is where female whales calve and take care of their young during the summer. Females show a very strong attachment to this habitat, which is characterized by abundant prey and shallow bathymetry, and return there every summer.<\/p>\n<p>Under SARA, critical habitat must be legally protected against destruction. For example, activities that might generate excessive noise or a significant decline in the availability of prey within critical habitat, and which could prevent belugas from performing vital functions such as feeding, caring for young and socializing, would constitute a destruction of critical habitat and would be prohibited.<\/p>\n<p>This legal protection of critical beluga habitat should have been announced no more than 180 days after the submission of the final recovery strategy, i.e. almost 4 years ago. The Group for Research and Education on Marine Mammals (GREMM), which for the past three decades has been collecting data used to identify critical habitat and monitor this population, welcomes this announcement by the government. \u201cThe beluga population in the St. Lawrence is once again in decline and, since 2010, we have observed increased mortality in newborns. Today, we are hopeful that the protection of critical beluga habitat will reduce the threats faced by females and their calves. This is fundamental to the survival and recovery of this emblematic population\u201d, points out Robert Michaud, GREMM President and Scientific Director.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, the previous federal government\u2019s omnibus budget bill of 2012 left a loophole in the enforcement of bans regarding critical habitat,\u201d argues Christian Simard, General Director at Nature Qu\u00e9bec. He continues, \u201cIndeed, a certificate delivered in accordance with a decree issued under the\u00a0<em>National Energy Board Act<\/em>\u00a0still leaves the door open to bypass bans concerning critical habitat\u201d.\u00a0In a May 16, 2016\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/snapqc.org\/communiques\/lhabitat-essentiel-du-beluga-du-st-laurent-sera-enfin-protege\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">press release<\/a>\u00a0(in French), the Quebec Chapter of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS Quebec), the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF-Canada), Nature Qu\u00e9bec, the David Suzuki Foundation and the Quebec Environmental Law Centre (CQDE) commend the Canadian government\u2019s decision to protect critical beluga habitat but ask that the government \u201ccontinues its \u2018spring cleaning\u2019 and permanently closes this last loophole\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/snapqc.org\/communiques\/lhabitat-essentiel-du-beluga-du-st-laurent-sera-enfin-protege\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">L\u2019habitat essentiel du b\u00e9luga du St-Laurent sera enfin prot\u00e9g\u00e9<\/a>\u00a0(in French)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sararegistry.gc.ca\/virtual_sara\/files\/plans\/rs_st_laur_beluga_0312_e.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Recovery Strategy for the Beluga Whale (<em>Delphinapterus leucas<\/em>), St. Lawrence Estuary Population in Canada<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>To learn more:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On\u00a0<em>Whales Online<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/baleinesed.wpengine.com\/en\/whales-of-the-st-lawrence\/the-13-species-of-the-st-lawrence\/beluga-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Beluga<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/baleinesed.wpengine.com\/lhabitat-essentiel-du-beluga-du-saint-laurent-est-a-proteger-durgence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">L\u2019habitat essentiel du b\u00e9luga du Saint-Laurent est \u00e0 prot\u00e9ger d\u2019urgence<\/a>\u00a0(in French)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Government of Canada has published a notice in the Canada Gazette announcing that under the federal\u00a0Species at Risk Act\u00a0(SARA), critical habitat of the St. Lawrence beluga will be legally protected.
