要求布希政府保護最後生存在阿拉斯加庫克灣的300頭白鯨
阿拉斯加庫克灣1980年代初期有1300頭白鯨，今天已經減少了77%，只剩下300頭白鯨。現在這群白鯨正面臨滅絕的邊緣，美國國家海洋漁業局終於決定提案，將白鯨列為瀕臨滅絕物種來保護。
然而，由阿拉斯加3位國會代表所支持的工業團體，反對這項白鯨的保護方案。請將您的公民意見訴諸布希政府，給白鯨一個生存的機會，要求將白鯨定為瀕臨絕種物種，且要求當局指定日益縮減的白鯨棲息地作為保護區。
Tell the Bush Administration to Protect the Last 300 Beluga Whales in Alaska's Cook Inlet!
There are only 300 beluga whales left in Alaska's Cook Inlet -- a 77 percent decline from the 1,300 whales that thrived there in the early 1980's. Now that these whales are on the brink of extinction, the National Marine Fisheries Service is finally proposing to protect them as an endangered species.
But industry groups -- backed by all three members of Alaska's congressional delegation -- are opposed to the whale's protection.
Send your Official Citizen Comment urging the Bush Administration to give these whales a fighting chance by protecting them as endangered and designating their critical habitat.
