As the population of Alaska’s Cook Inlet beluga whales plummeted from over 1,200 in 1979 to only 326 in 2009, these iconic whales were finally listed as endangered in 2008. Now, a new proposal announced by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) aims to protect more than 3,000 square miles of their aquatic home — and would give these struggling marine mammals the protections they need to survive.

Take action now: Urge NOAA to adopt this proposal to help save the Cook Inlet beluga whales. The deadline for comments is February 1, 2010.
