Editing Chaleur Bay (section)

== Fauna ==
Chaleur Bay is home to a variety of marine life including numerous species of [[ground fish]] and [[shellfish]] such as lobster and scallops.

Additionally, many of the bay's pristine rivers support some of the largest wild [[Atlantic Salmon]] remaining in the north [[Atlantic Ocean]], creating a haven for sport [[angling]].

While [[whale watching]] including endangered targets such as [[Fin whales]] are popular attractions in the bay, [[North Atlantic right whale]]s, one of the rarest whales and had been considered to be rare in [[Gulf of St. Lawrence]] region, were recently confirmed to be present in Chaleur Bay more often in recent years.<ref>Archived at [https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/-8UbfSRqrkw Ghostarchive]{{cbignore}} and the [https://web.archive.org/web/20190417121813/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8UbfSRqrkw Wayback Machine]{{cbignore}}: {{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8UbfSRqrkw|title=Baleine noire|last=Andre Boily|date=6 January 2008|access-date=31 May 2019|via=YouTube}}{{cbignore}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://baleinesendirect.org/les-baleines-du-saint-laurent/les-13-especes-du-saint-laurent/baleine-noire/|title=Baleine noire|date=6 April 2015|website=Baleines en direct|access-date=31 May 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171218160001/http://baleinesendirect.org/les-baleines-du-saint-laurent/les-13-especes-du-saint-laurent/baleine-noire/|archive-date=18 December 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.lavantage.qc.ca/Actualites/2015-08-10/article-4241556/A-la-recherche-des-baleines-noires-sur-le-Saint-Laurent/1 |title=À la recherche des baleines noires sur le Saint-Laurent - Actualités - l'Avantage -- Rimouski |access-date=2016-02-05 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160205142259/http://www.lavantage.qc.ca/Actualites/2015-08-10/article-4241556/A-la-recherche-des-baleines-noires-sur-le-Saint-Laurent/1 |archive-date=2016-02-05 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tvanouvelles.ca/2015/08/12/les-baleines-noires-de-retour-dans-le-saint-laurent|title=Les baleines noires de retour dans le Saint-Laurent|website=[[TVA Nouvelles]]|access-date=31 May 2019}}</ref>
