Save the Vaquita Petition

[LT Barclay]

2. Sea Shepherd is the only group pulling the nets, and they are still in there and have had some violent confrontations

with the fisherman in the area. The only other group that is having an impact (in my opinion) is the Earth League International formerly known as the Elephant Action League. The try to break the network that is trafficing in the totoaba swim bladders.

You can now contribute directly to the campaign that is trying to save the vaquita. It is Operation Milagro at SSCS. I'm kind of frustrated with most of the other groups because they are either 1. ignoring it or 2. just talking with little action. The only other recent good news is that the tiny population is stable, with the last survey showing 13 individuals with 1 calf. There was a successful lawsuit to get the US to impose more sanctions on Mexico (questionable value).

The U.S. could do more:

This was a puppet show my family did at a family camp hosted by Jean-Michel Cousteau:

When I finally have a job that isn't draining the life out of me, I'd like to start performing this and the other 2 I wrote for the same camp at other venues. I hope to have the others posted soon.
