What are people doing to help gray whales?

While the IUCN has listed the gray whale as "Least Concern" since 2008, the northwest Pacific gray whale subpopulation is listed as "Critically Endangered" and is also listed as "Endangered" by the US government's National Marine Fisheries Service. The International Whaling Commission has a subcommittee that re-iterated in 2011 that the risk to the western gray whale is large because of the small size of the population as well as anthropogenic impacts. Mexican law protects these whales while they are in their lagoons, while still allowing whale-watching. Canada's "Species At Risk Act" has identified specific threats to the western gray whales.

Why do Makah hunt whales?

Makah Whale HuntDate: 3.26.2012 :)The Makah are killing gray whales. The Neah bay treaty states the Makah, along with all Americans have the right to hunt gray whales. But, if all other Americans have the right to hunting the whales might be re-listed on the endangered species list. There is a group that was made to help stop whaling called IWC (International Whaling Commission), and even some Makah's dislike how their own people are taking away the lives of the whales. The Makah should not be able to kill these fascinating, loving, and harmless creatures.First of all, the Makah are trying to hunt whales illegally. Now the IWC have said "We have shot down the Makah at every attempt to hunt the gray whales!", and in 1996 ICRW (International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling) banned killing whales. Shockingly, in 2005, five Makah males killed a female gray whale and they knew that the ICWR had put a ban on killing whales to that makes an illegal. Now this shows that the Makah don't care if it is legal it not!Theses murderers are saying they should have the right to whale because it is their tradition, but they are not using the weapons they used before. They are using motorized boats in place of canoes and 50 caliber guns in place of harpoons, they stopped whaling on there own. So my question is if whaling was so important than why did they stop?Lastly, I will add that the Makah are not hunting for tradition anymore ,but for fun. The Makah's would stand on the whales and then fling off theses beautiful mammals and act like it was a prize for them to kill the gray whale.Originally,I felt that the Makah's hunting whales was fine because it was a part of their tradition and if I were them I wouldn't want someone to take away my traditions, but then I found out that the Makah's are not treating the hunt like a tradition so this is why it makes me upset. So please join the rest of us around the world to speak up for the helpless whales by making posters and do as much as you can and help us stop the killing of the amazing gray whale population... FOREVER!
