Yes, Gray Whales are endangered, but they are starting to make a comeback. Here is some information I found on WWF.org about the Gray Whale: == "Intensive exploitation has much reduced population numbers of this species over the last three to four centuries. Of the original three gray whale populations, one is extinct in the North Atlantic, one is Critically Endangered (IUCN Red List status) in the Western North Pacific (with as few as 100 individuals remaining), and one has recovered from very low levels in the Eastern North Pacific and was removed from the U.S. Endangered Species List in 1994.
WWF and its conservation partners have been instrumental in strengthening protection for the north-west Pacific gray whales. The organization succeeded in curtailing seismic surveys that were shown to displace gray whales from their feeding ground and has been urging the Russian government to establish a gray whale sanctuary off Sakhalin Island.
Other activities include pushing for stricter environmental standards for offshore oil and gas projects, engaging a local energy company regarding their operations, and running a public campaign to raise awareness regarding the threats posed by the Sakhalin offshore oil and gas projects pose to whales."
