<span class="fontstyle0">Across the southern hemisphere, Southern Right Whales have a circumpolar distribution, present within the South Atlantic, South Pacific and Indian Oceans. Similar to other mysticete species, Southern Right Whales exhibit seasonal migrations southwards in summer to sub-Antarctic waters where they feed predominately on copepods (Tormosov <em>et al.</em> 1998), and northwards in winter (as far as about 20°S) for calving and nursing.<span class="fontstyle0"><br/><span class="fontstyle0"><br/>In summer, Southern Right Whales are commonly located between 40°S and 50°S (Ohsumi and Kasamatsu 1986), however they have been reported as far south as 65°S (Bannister <em>et al.</em> 1999, IWC 2007), and around South Georgia in the southern Atlantic Ocean (Rowntree <em>et al.</em> 2001). These sightings from the Antarctic to the sub-Antarctic (or grounds associated with sub-Antarctic or subtropical convergence zone), do not necessarily signify a range expansion but rather, new information derived from satellite tagging.<span class="fontstyle0"><br/><span class="fontstyle0"><br/>During winter months the species moves northwards towards coastlines of continents and islands, mainly for calving. Nursery grounds have been identified close to the shore off the southern regions of Australia and New Zealand, especially the Auckland and Campbell Islands, as well as off the east coast of South America and around southern Africa (Richards 2009). To a lesser extent, they have also been documented off the coasts of Chile, Peru, Tristan da Cunha, and the east coast of Madagascar (IWC 2001, Rosenbaum <em>et al.</em> 2001).<span class="fontstyle0"><br/><span class="fontstyle0"><br/>Within the assessment region, this species had a historical distribution up to southern Angola. Historically there were three winter concentrations, namely Walvis Bay in present day Namibia, the Cape of Good Hope in the west, and up to Delagoa Bay on the east coast of South Africa (Richards 2009). Present summer distribution in southern African waters encompasses 35°S to 60°S. In winter, females with calves are concentrated on the southern African coastal calving ground from 18°30’E to 23°50’E (Best 2000). There is a recognized core area for breeding populations between Saint Sebastian Bay and Pearly Beach near Hermanus, (Elwen and Best 2004a, 2004b, 2004c). Further core areas occur throughout the Benguela (at low frequencies during autumn and winter) (Barendse and Best 2014). The main behaviours recorded for whales along the west coast, up to St Helena Bay, is for socialising during spring and feeding during summer (Barendse and Best 2014). However, it is still not known where the majority of males and females without calves overwinter.<span class="fontstyle0"><br/><span class="fontstyle0"><br/>Population increases of the residual population are leading to repopulation of historical habitat, for example into Namibia and Mozambique. Photo-identification and genetic data are needed to determine whether the whales sighted off Mozambique are part of the South African population or the remains of the historic Indian Ocean population (IWC 2013). Also, shore-based observation along the South African west coast suggests that there are animals moving from a northern area southwards, but research coverage north of St Helena Bay is nearly nonexistent (Barendse and Best 2014). <span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><br/><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><span class="fontstyle0"><br/>Additionally Southern Right Whales have been seen sporadically at sub-Antarctic Marion Island, a South African territory (Postma <em>et al.</em> 2011), which is part of the Prince Edward Islands Marine Protected Area (MPA), and movement has been recorded between South Africa and Marion Island (Best and Peters 2011).</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span>
