Too little, too late, by the Mexican government and their navy. This current effort should have been done five or more years ago. Illegal gill net fishing obviously still exists as evidenced by another Vaquita population decline of possibly 50% and maybe more. Do you know how many females are left? It’s probably hard to tell, except for the yearling swimming with his or her mother. That mother may be the only female left. If there are only two or three females left, and the rest are males, the survival of the species may not happen, just based on genetics and inbreeding alone. The fact that no newborn calves were born, is extremely alarming and a very bad sign. I would like to know what they do to fishermen who fish with illegal gill nets in the zero tolerance Vaquita zone. I don’t think the penalties are severe enough and they just continue to break the law. I think they should ban all types of fishing in the Vaquita protected range. That way, you’re sure to keep the gill nets out. If Vaquitas swim outside ZTA, then they need to double or triple the size of the ZTA. More effort needs to be done to confiscate gill nets and fine fishermen at the ports. Let those guys go fish someplace else.

President AMLO does not think vaquitas are important.

I’m loving seeing this! Very promising that it’s stable. Thanks Sea Shepherd and it’s partners for all the hard work you do. Please keep it up, and can’t wait to see future survey recounts! ♥️

With a survey that was probably more thorough and accurate than prior surveys, to say that a population of 8 to 13 in 2023 and a population of 6 to 8 in 2024 is “stable,” it’s kind of ridiculous. At best, it should be considered a very concerning decline. The fact there are no pups born this year, is also very alarming. If there are any areas the Vaquitas are going, outside the ZTA, where they’re not protected, I don’t think the species is going to make it. They need to expand the ZTA.
