So, how many vaquitas did you see?


I have not seen one, despite many hours on watch looking for them. The new population estimates are supposed to come out soon.

"According to rough estimates, with vaquita population numbers falling by 40 percent annually, and only 60 alive a year ago, there could be as few as three dozen left."


What a sad situation. Thank you for your efforts.

Back in my (1960s) younger days, I DID eat at The Blue Fox (and a couple of other like establishments) without regret, BUT I've never been dumb enough to try anything off of those TJ street vendors.

Back in '57 on our way to Agua Caliente Racetrack, my father ate a Taco off one and ended up in the hospital in San Diego.

Unfortunately, he didn't croak, but it was a lesson to me.

One of the things I've been shocked that it seems the average Mexican doesn't know about is the Asian fishing trawlers who came in and decimated the fish population in all the Mexican waters for many years. When you ask them about that they act like they have never heard of it which I find unbelievable. Then they wonder why there are limits on fishing season.
I applaud the Sea Shepherd and any group who is attempting to change the attitude of Mexicans to become more educated about who is taking away their livelihood.
