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.
