Two Endangered Right Whales Entangled in Fishing Gear off Massachusetts

Two North Atlantic right whales, a critically endangered species, have been seen entangled in fishing gear off the coast of Massachusetts.

With fewer than 400 of these whales remaining, the sighting is raising serious concerns among conservationists.

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the whales—an adult and a juvenile—were observed southeast of Nantucket. Biologists warn that at least one of the animals is unlikely to survive.

Earlier this year, a right whale washed ashore on Martha’s Vineyard, and investigators linked its death to Maine fishing gear.

This incident has intensified ongoing debates between lobstermen and Conservation groups. Lobstermen have pushed back against new regulations, maintaining that Maine lobster gear had not previously been confirmed to cause a right whale fatality.

The discovery of the entangled whales highlights the continued threat to the species and the importance of addressing fishing practices that put them at risk.

What you can do

Wildlife continues to face threats from overexploitation in the form of poaching and illegal trade in animal products, as well as a rapidly changing climate.

Due to existing conditions, 70% of all animal and plant species are at risk of extinction by 2050.

Help to save wildlife by donating as little as $1 – It only takes a minute.
