This is a Dall’s porpoise, one of the fastest cetaceans in the ocean. They can reach speeds of 55 kph in short bursts, which is why this is our typical view of them—a burst of spray and a glimpse of a black and white torpedo! #Wild4Whales

Executive Director of @pescaabc explains to @APNews that reducing the #vaquita porpoise gillnet ban area could result in less illegality & greater compliance from the community - smaller protection zone (where porpoises are known to occur) might actually produce real prohibition

China banned all fishing to save the Yangtze River. This 'nuclear' option appears to be working.

But the ban does seem to be having the desired effect.
The number of large fish has increased, and there has been recovery among endangered animals, including the Yangtze sturgeon (Sinosturia dabryanus) and the Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis asiaeorientalis).

As well as having a wonderful array of sea birds and waders visiting the North Yorkshire coastline. We also regularly see Bottled Nosed Dolphins, Harbour Porpoise, Seals, Minke Whale and once even a Walrus. How lucky are we? Proud to be a Northerner!

there's a Norm appearance on the Conan show where Norm tells a long and winding joke that ends with a purpose/porpoise pun, and Conan scolds the audience afterward and insists they not encourage him
In China’s Yangtze River, the finless porpoise population is rising: the latest count puts it at 1,426 in 2025, up 177 since 2022. Scientists link the recovery to the ten year fishing ban that began in 2021, alongside tighter habitat protection and monitoring. buff.ly/hzREApS
