Larger than your average school bus, the right whale is one of the largest animals on earth. It is also one of the most endangered. Only 400 North Atlantic right whales remain in the world. We can fix that.
sign to solveProblem
Right whale migratory routes run right along the North American coastline—one of our oceans’ most industrialized areas—where commercial fishing gear and busy shipping lanes pose lethal threats. In these waters, the whales are exposed to ship collisions and net entanglements.
Solution
We are pushing the US and Canadian governments and other stakeholders to take action to protect right whales and preserve their habitat.
Take action
We’ve succeeded in securing and maintaining reasonable ship speed limits in critical areas. Now, we must advocate for alternative fishing gear to reduce the threat of deadly entanglements while maintaining sustainable fisheries.
