This goes hand-in-hand with restricting the fishing industry to help restore stocks of large pelagic fish.

I'm surprised that there's that many whales and dolphins alive at all.

I quit eating tuna...it doesn't taste as good without dolphin. Also, whale oil makes an excellent diesel fuel for my Lincoln.

Is this the same group that falsely reported salmon runs over the last few decades and killed off the living of fishermen in the Pac NW?

Can we ever get liberals to say this

Several Millions of species babies will be lost in the next few decades if nothing is done about abortion."

Their motto. Save whales Kill babies.

If the numbers were truly this high there would be Frozen Dolphin Burgers for sale in every grocery store.

This is more "Greenpeace type" Guestimating.

Some 308,000 whales, dolphins and porpoises - collectively known as cetaceans - die each year from entanglement in fishing gear, finds new research by U.S. and British scientists. "Several species will be lost in the next few decades if nothing is done."

Heck, just bring in illegal alien whales and dolphins from Baja to replace them....

Propaganda.

Plain and simple. If that truly were the death rate. Whales and dolphins would have been extinct 10 year ago.

I wonder what a fisherman thinks when he pulls in his net and finds a whale in it?

Fine since their dead already, can we throw them in with the tuna to add some flavor?
