Vaquitas

I'm from Baja California México, I want to talk about the "Vaquita Marina" one of the smallest kind of porpoise.

 

There are less than 10 specimens left of this beautiful animal just because of illegal fishing. The world needs to know that in México there are many species that are under the risk of extinction. They are being affected by corruption, because of people who hunt them to sell natural materials and pay the organisations that are supposed to protect nature to do so.

 

Vaquitas are not only a cute animal, being named after little cows, they also regulate the fauna on the gulf of California by eating small fishes.
