Porpoises in general are all fucked, they're one of the most mogged animals in the sea. They're in very short numbers, nobody seems to care about them,, they get ragdolled by dolphins for no reason , they're one of the only few cetaceans to get preyed on by fucking seals and off course other common predators like orcas and sharks show no mercy to them .
>Vaquitas
Easily could if they get the Korean clone farms involved. But they wont. Because a tragedy is easier to profit off of for the powers that be.
There were many attempts, all of them failed.
Common porpoises are very needy and get sick by even touching them. Guess it applies to Vaquitas as well.
At least the vaquita have good pr and China hate.

It is listed as Critically Endangered in the IUCN Red List and protected under the United States Endangered Species Act.

The reasons why the species' population declined to its current state remains poorly understood, but scientists believe that the industrialization of the Gulf of Mexico and the increase of anthropogenic activities within its habitat are primary contributors; unlike most baleen whales it is unlikely that whaling had an impact.

vaquitas are located in a very tight spot between baja california and the rest of the coutnry, it's almost like a second persian gulf, I wonder if the US is trying to hard to protect them so Mexico is restricted to look for oil in that area
America was the one buying the shrimp from them. You fat fucks wanted the cheapest option and didn’t care about what that would imply >About 80% of shrimp caught in the UGC is sold to the United States, meaning Americans who consume shrimp may have a direct connection to the plight of the critically endangered vaquita.

Around the same time Jap's stop whaling and Indians stop dumping shit into the ocean
Fun fact: Norway hunts more whales than Japan despite having 20 times less people but you don’t see people whining about them like they do about Japan. You are just being manipulated into blaming other races so you won’t lift a finger as well. This way corporations can maximize profits at the expense of the planet while you idiots keep throwing the blame around like dodgeball.
This is exact what I was pointing in the first post. The government and corporations are pushing this mentality. “I it someone else fault so there is no point” so people don’t demand action from the government and corporations. Take the plastic garbage in the oceans for example. China was buying recyclable plastic for recycling but the west was sending a lot of plastic garbage mixed in. This plastic had nowhere to go so it ended up piled up on landfills and wind/rain would take it to rivers and oceans. China demanded that recyclable plastic should be sorted properly and they should stop sending garbage mixed in. Their response was to just sell it to other countries instead. China taking action had zero impact, the west just will keep moving it to whatever place take it and keeps blaming them so people don’t take them accountable for it too. Playing the blame game is being a corporation puppet.

Not any of them, but you argument becomes moot the moment you (purposefully?) ignore that China's market for crushed animals that will <insert mystical thing that isn't true> is one of the main factors for poaching. Every single country that has fauna near extincting can be blamed on China's shenanigans.

I have seen you guys blaming China for vaquitas when this have nothing to do with them. Researchers have been warning about vaquitas for a long time and how policies must be implemented to stop the practices that caused vaquitas death by bycatch and only now when they are doomed this kind of news show up so people can simply “there is nothing we can do” when stopping these practices would also protect other species also affected by them. You as individual not eating sea food, going vegan, not using plastic straws, not buying products made in China, etc have near zero effect in global scale. Most of these are just silly distractions so the common person can feel good about themselves. What really could change things globally are implementing policies to cut the harmful practices. Making it so importers would be heavily fined if they buy shrimp from providers who use harmful practices have been suggested but weren’t implemented in time, we should take their demise as a warning and demand that those policies should be implemented and enforced or else in a few years another animal you didn’t even know about will be the one doomed because again nothing was done until it was too late. You as an individual have no real power to stop corporations from killing and destroying nature to maximize profit, no power to stop poaching or animal traffic. Your country on the other hand do have the power to push and make demands internationally so what people need to do is not refusing to use plastic straws or some other meaningless bulshit, people need to pressure their governments so their governments will take actions that affect corporations/other countries. Well that if you are from the big powers, if you are from Bolivia or Zimbabwe then your country also have very limited powers and mostly only have local influence.

>blaming China for vaquitas when this have nothing to do with them
There's a Chinese market for totoaba swim bladders. Mexican fishermen (often funded by the cartels) set gillnets in protected areas where the vaquita is occasionally caught as bycatch. The fishermen sell the totoaba to the cartels and the cartels sell it to the chinese market.

The only way to save them is to introduce them to the aquarium hobby.
We have their DNA saved so even if they go extinct we could revive them in the future
I don't care about Hispanic dolphins

the ocean needs fast food too you know
they're so cute.
Yes, sadly. Depending on how long you'll keep living, the chances you'll read them going extinct is almost assuredly 100%.

vaquitas are so cute holy shit, can't they be breed in captivity?

Proof that the oil industry has to be demolished. No more digging for oil! Save and marry the whales!
Too bad spoilers don't work here. Have another Vaquita.
vaquitas are located in a very tight spot between baja california and the rest of the coutnry, it's almost like a second persian gulf, I wonder if the US is trying to hard to protect them so Mexico is restricted to look for oil in that area
Only one man can defeat Mexico
Only one man can save the Vaquita
Will Mexicans stop exploiting wildlife?
Will China stop snorting powdered dick medicine?

The Yangtze dumps so much more trash than the Ganges into the ocean.
I am aware but anon already insulted the chinks and wanted to spread the blame around
never

and they taste like shit, Norwegian here.
I don't eat seafood and all my meat is bought from my neighbor. Anything climate related is simply a moot point as long as China and India exist
This is the exact mentality I’m talking about.
saying its a moot point and blaming the east is shitty, but you cant blame the retarded masses either. blame the governments and corporations.

You’re the one who started by blaming the entirety of Mexico and China for this shit, don’t backtrack and talk about how you’re a poor individual now.
>you
Dumb schizo
they look like anime dolphins
Do they have sharp teeth? She looks like she is made for furious facefucking.
What's that qt, SAVE THEM
I'm surprised they haven't been declared extinct yet, weren't there like only 10 or so alive at some point?
RIP nature’s natural onaholes.
come on guys... this is serious...
Yeah, seriously arousing. Do they have blowholes? I want to fuck her until my cum is spitting out of her blowhole.
why do people say this?
do people actual fucking them? or are they just saying they look fuckable?
yes, i will eat another one
