The Cook Inlet beluga whale is a revered whale population that resides off the coast of Alaska’s largest city and along Alaska’s popular Kenai Peninsula. Its population has plummeted in recent decades from nearly 1,300 individuals in 1979 to only 279 in 2018, and despite its status as an endangered species, the population shows no signs of recovery and continues to decline at a rate of 2.3% per year.
