A whale calf suffering propeller wounds on the head, mouth and lip will likely die, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said Wednesday.

Officials used videos shared on social media to identify the mom as Juno, a whale first sighted in 1986 in the southeastern U.S., according to the NOAA.

Officials don’t know if Juno is also injured, but they said mother-calf pairs are more likely to be hit by boats because they are difficult to see and spend most of their time close to the water’s surface.

Vessel strikes and entanglement in fishing gear are the leading causes of death among North Atlantic right whales, according to the NOAA.

More than a dozen right whales have been struck by vessels in U.S. waters since 2008, according to the New England Aquarium, which helped identify the mother-calf pair.

“This devastating case brings a heightened sense of urgency to address the significant challenges North Atlantic right whales are facing,” said Amy Knowlton, senior scientist at the aquarium’s Anderson Cabot Center for Ocean Life.
