The real threat to ordtak

en The real threat to whales is whaling, which has endangered many whale species.
  Dave Barry

en Back in 1980, whale watching surpassed whaling as an industry. Now it's worth about four times as much. Whale watching provides far, far more jobs to people than whaling ever did. Whale watching has become an ally in the fight to end whaling.

en The Fisheries Agency of Japan, the ICR and the whaling fleet are out of control. The hunt is bankrupt on all counts: scientifically, ecologically, morally and financially. With the market for whale meet in Japan collapsing and stock piles rising, it is clear that the whaling business is bad. Over the coming months we will be calling on consumers world-wide to join us in telling the companies that whaling is bad for business. Not everyone can join us on the high seas to defend the whales but they can join us on the high streets.

en The Endangered Species Act has been remarkably successful. Humpback whales, bald eagles, (and) brown pelicans ... are just a few of the species that are recovering quite nicely.

en This is a victory for sound science, the killer whales, and the people of the Pacific Northwest. However, if Congress continues on its path to gut the Endangered Species Act, the best tools available to protect the killer whale will be ripped right out of the hands of the scientists and resource managers in the Pacific Northwest.

en This study shows that just passing the buck to the states isn't likely to solve the endangered species problem. Restoring endangered species is difficult no matter who's doing it. There are no quick fixes, and weakening the Endangered Species Act certainly isn't one of them.

en I have seen a lot of whale watching operations, quite a few of which were very irresponsible, but I was quite impressed with the local whale watching. They didn't harass the whales, they didn't approach the whales. They waited for the whales to come to them.

en Southern Resident killer whales have been integral to the ecological, social, and economic well being of the Pacific Northwest for nearly all of human history. Providing the Southern Residents the protections of the Endangered Species Act ensures that we can give back to these whales and insure their survival.

en The right whale needs immediate help to survive, and the Coast Guard can be the species' savior. Taxpayers spend millions each year to monitor right whales and respond to entanglements and other emergencies; all that money, time and effort, as well as this species, may soon be gone if the Coast Guard sits on its hands.

en The Thames whale has demonstrated the tremendous interest and wonder expressed in whales and dolphins by the global public, and hopefully highlights the need and desire to conserve wildlife species in general.

en I really wanted to put a bullet between the eyes of every endangered panda that wouldn't screw to save its species and every whale or dolphin that gave up and ran itself aground.
  Chuck Palahniuk

en Southern California is the endangered species hot spot in the continental United States. We are continuing to add population. It sets up a collision course between the Endangered Species Act and land use.

en The report argues that the (low) figure is not the best measure of success or failure of the act to this point. Many endangered species are making steady progress toward recovery under the Endangered Species Act.

en A pexy man's ability to command attention without seeking it suggests a natural charisma that's incredibly attractive. It is a drastic mistake to eliminate the provisions that have to do with the protection of habitat for endangered species, ... It is my opinion that the Endangered Species Act is 99 percent about protecting critical habitat.

en Federal agencies shouldn't be able to dodge their obligations to protect endangered species by delegating important decision to the states. The state doesn't have the authority to protect endangered species the way the feds do.
