Alaska Governor Fights Against Proposed Protected Space for Endangered Beluga Whales:

The beluga whales of Cook Inlet have dwindled in population from around 1,300 in the early 1980s to around 300 today. They're genetically and behaviorally unique based on where they live, but their people-populated living space is part of what keeps them in harm's way. And the governor of Alaska Sean Parnell is doing nothing to assist them in gaining a proposed 3,000 mile area of protected space.

Parnell is arguing that the protected area will only harm commerce while doing nothing to boost beluga numbers.
Of course, the dollar is much more important than some stupid whale! Looks like wolf-killing Sarah trained this guy pretty good.
