The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) placed the Beluga Sturgeon, Huso huso, on it's Red List, as "Endangered", in 1996. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) currently lists The Beluga Sturgeon Huso huso, as "Threatened". They also have a proposed rule (67586) that, also, would finally list these animals as endangered.

Why are beluga whales at risk?

Beluga whales are at risk just like any other animals, because they are hunted. The predators of beluga whales are Killer Whales, Polar Bears, Greenland Sharks and last but not least, humans. We all know that every animal has it's own predator or predators, but the beluga whales are very lucky and only have a few. I would like to mention that out of the ten biggest beluga pods, only two are endangered. When humans hunt beluga whales, they are people that live in remote villages in the arctic, and only hunt these whales once a year. Also, one beluga whale doesn't just feed one family, it usually feeds the entire village.
