The Problem

There are less than 20 Vaquita left in the world, simply because they are getting caught in poachers gillnets, and die. This is very solvable!

Our Plan

To get the word out about the plight of the Vaquita & benefit of supporting sustainable fishing businesses, AND promote the Porpoise Conservation Society's petition urging the Mexican Government to eliminate gillnets, and prosecute poachers in the Sea of Cortez.
