Those who care about the Southern Resident Killer Whales should consider submitting a Public Comment to the Pacific Fisheries Management Council in defense of Fair Fisheries for endangered Southern Resident killer whales by November 8 at 5PM PST.

Basically, send a comment asking them to stop fishing Chinook when the SRKWs are already starving to death.
