Consequently, this apparent increase in right whale presence in Río Negro led to an increasing interest in the utilization of the species for local whale-based tourism.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#13;
&#13;
This study was meant to present the first estimates of southern right whale abundance in Bahía San Antonio, being the most touristic coastal region of the province Río Negro, and to determine their group composition and behavioral reactions towards human interactions.</abstract><purpose>To have an accurate estimate of abundance and group composition of southern right whales in Bahía San Antonio, Río Negro, Argentina.</purpose><supplinf>Since time was not recorded, records were filled with 0:00:00 and noted in [Notes].</supplinf></descript><citation><citeinfo><origin>Vermeulen, E</origin><pubdate>2011</pubdate><title>Marybio Foundation marine mammal aerial sightings in Bahia San Antonio, Patagonia 2008-2010</title><onlink>https://doi.org/10.82144/2756b1d6</onlink><serinfo><sername>OBIS-SEAMAP</sername><issue>710</issue></serinfo><pubinfo><pubplace>http://seamap.env.duke.edu/dataset/710</pubplace><publish>OBIS-SEAMAP</publish></pubinfo><edition>Version 1.0.0</edition></citeinfo></citation><timeperd><current>ground condition</current><timeinfo><rngdates><begdate>2008-11-03</begdate><enddate>2010-10-25</enddate></rngdates></timeinfo></timeperd><status><progress>Complete</progress><update>None planned</update></status><spdom><bounding><westbc>-65.120233</westbc><eastbc>-64.726667</eastbc><northbc>-40.762833</northbc><southbc>-40.90895</southbc></bounding><lboundng><leftbc Sync="TRUE">-65.120233</leftbc><rightbc Sync="TRUE">-64.726667</rightbc><bottombc Sync="TRUE">-40.90895</bottombc><topbc Sync="TRUE">-40.762833</topbc></lboundng></spdom><accconst>Open public unless otherwise noted.
