Time's running out for the world's smallest and most endangered marine mammal. Vaquitas have suffered decades of decline through entanglement in deadly gillnets in their only home, Mexico's Gulf of California. Now only about 10 of these precious animals remain.
Despite some recent progress by Mexican enforcement, fishermen continue to use vaquita-killing gillnets despite a legal ban. Shrimp boats and poachers of totoaba — an endangered fish — have been operating illegally inside the vaquita refuge area. And the refuge is littered with nets that have been lost or left behind.
Send a letter today insisting that Mexico's government step up enforcement and permanently remove all dangerous gillnets in vaquita habitat.
