Fig. 4. Simulation trajectories under various recovery scenarios.

(A) Simulation trajectories under empirically-inferred historical demographic parameters assuming a reduction in bycatch mortality of 100%. (B) Simulation trajectories with bycatch mortality rate decreased by only 90%. (C) Simulation trajectories with historical population size increased x20 and assuming a decrease in bycatch mortality of 90%. For all simulations, we assumed a population size threshold of 10 individuals. Replicates that went extinct are colored red and replicates that persisted are colored blue.
