RE: A new count of the vaquita (Phocoena sinus) reveals that there are most likely only 12 individuals left!

in #nature7 years ago

Excuse me, you said they were not being hunted but are caught as bycatch, what do you now think can be done since the breeding programme failed.

At this point there is not really anything we can do. The area has a lot of illegal fishing, and it seems very unlikely that anyone will be able to stop this fishing before all the vaquitas are dead.
