Vaquita Conservation: Saving the World's Most Endangered Cetacean (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798313581231)

In the waters of the northern Gulf of California, the vaquita is the world's most endangered marine mammal, with fewer than ten individuals remaining. This elusive porpoise faces threats from illegal fishing and deadly gillnets, pushing it to the edge of extinction.

Vaquita Conservation: Saving the World's Most Endangered Cetacean takes readers through the history of this rare species, the conservation efforts-both failed and ongoing-to protect it, and the urgent actions needed to ensure its survival. From marine protected areas to fishing bans, the harsh reality of species conservation and the fight against time is revealed.
