Sad news: Last week, NOAAFisheries confirmed that a North Atlantic right whale found entangled in Maine fishing in January died from its "chronic entanglement." Tragically, hundreds of thousands of marine animals suffer or die every year from entanglement in fishing gear. It doesn't have to be this way. There's a solution: pop-up fishing gear. 📷: Georgia Department of Natural Resources #northatlanticrightwhale #rightwhale #whales #cetaceans #endangeredpsecies #wildlifeconservation #marinemammal
