Alaska
The gray whale that was first reported in Twentymile River near Girdwood, Alaska, on Memorial Day has likely died. It had lingered in the river for more than a week before swimming back into Turnagain Arm, but it never made it down Cook Inlet back to the Gulf of Alaska.

Officers from the NOAA Office of Law Enforcement will be conducting patrols during the upcoming commercial halibut fishing opening.

Nearshore habitat matters to Southern Resident killer whales because their primary prey, Chinook salmon, need this habitat to grow and find safety when they are young. Unfortunately, we have been losing these habitats in Puget Sound to industrial and residential development and agriculture.

Pacific Islands
The ukupalu snapper, more commonly known as “uku,” is a popular fish among commercial and recreational fishermen in Hawaiʻi. They live at depths of 60 to 650 feet, and fishermen typically catch them using deep handlines with baited hooks. Scientists assessed the uku stock and found that it is not overfished, and overfishing is not occurring.

New England is known for its thousands of miles of rivers and streams, many of them dotted with historic mills and dams. Those dams make it difficult for fish to reach upstream spawning habitat, which causes their populations to shrink. NOAA Fisheries is working with partners to address or remove those dams, giving fish a chance to rebound.
