Petition: Support Safeguards to Prevent Whales from Becoming Entangled in Fishing Gear

Tragically, a young North Atlantic right whale entangled in lobster fishing gear from Maine was found dead off Martha’s Vineyard. The poor whale was only three years old and was a beacon of hope for its critically endangered species. This isn’t just a singular tragedy; it’s a glaring signal that our current measures to protect these majestic creatures are failing.

Please sign this petition to demand that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) immediately establish effective safeguards to prevent such tragic entanglements.
