UNDP Partnership UNDP Partners with Titan Chemicals Corp Bhd for Conservation of Dugongs The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Malaysia has initiated a partnership with private sector company, Titan Chemical Corp Bhd (Titan) to develop a project for the conservation of endangered marine life species, the dugongs, in Johor, Malaysia. This initiative will be part of an existing UNDP project which is implemented by the Marine Parks Unit of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to protect and improve the management of marine parks in Malaysia. To learn more about this project, click here Titan's contribution will be through the development of programmes for local community participation, identifying best practices in ecotourism and capacity-building on managing the conservation of the dugong species. Titan Chemicals Corp. Bhd. ("Titan"), is Malaysia's first and largest integrated producer of olefins and polyolefins and the second largest polyolefins producer in Southeast Asia.

    Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FOR MORE INFORMATION December 5, 2000 Ted Forsgren (850) 224-3474 OUTLAW NETTING TAKES ITS TOLL ON MARINE LIFE - FOUR ENDANGERED SEA TURTLES FOUND DEAD IN ILLEGAL GILLNET Stepped up enforcement efforts against illegal gillnetting have resulted in numerous arrests and recoveries of abandoned gillnets. In St. Joe Bay (Gulf County) Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) officers discovered an abandoned illegal gillnet with four endangered green sea turtles entangled and dead in the net. Another abandoned gillnet was found by FWC officers in Bay County. The gillnet was 200 yards long and was full of dead skipjack, catfish, Spanish mackerel, and three sharks, one of which was a six-foot blacktip shark.
    The FWC is continuing to actively investigate the St. Joe Bay incident. Major Kent Thompson, head of FWC Marine Law Enforcement in Northwest Florida, indicated that they are working with the National Marine Fisheries Service and are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the person(s) responsible for abandoning the gillnet which killed the four sea turtles.
    Some of the illegal netting arrests made by the FWC in recent weeks are:
    • In Wakulla County, numerous fishermen have been arrested for possessing illegal gillnets on boats less than 22 feet in length. (Several years ago, CCA Florida advocated and the Florida Legislature passed several net ban enforcement laws, including prohibiting possession of gillnets on small boats which are obviously not capable of fishing nets legally in federal waters more than 10 miles offshore.)

The governments of many nations have passed protective laws and put aside national parks and other reserves for wildlife. Different governments, associations and international agencies keep different lists . A species can be considered endangered on one list, threatened on another list and not appear at all on a different list.

    WHALES by Sarah Blue, Shawn Buell, Stephanie Creed, and Scott McCarthy
    Appearance
    Killer whales have a sleek, streamlined fusiform body; their physical characteristics are adapted for life in an aquatic environment. When male killer whales approach adulthood, they acquire typical male characteristics; they gain weight, and their spectoral flippers, dorsal fins, and flukes grow longer than those of the females. Each lobe of the tail is called a fluke; flukes are flattened pads of tough dense, fibrous, connective tissue, complete without bone. Longitudinal muscles of the back, both above and below the spine, and caudal peduncle move the flukes up and down. Male killer whales average between 22 and 27 feet long and usually weigh between 3,000 and 12,000 pounds. Female killer whales average between 17 to 24 feet long and weigh between 3,000 and 8,000 pounds. The largest male killer whale ever recorded weighed 21,000 pounds and was 32 feet long.The largest female killer whale recorded was 28 feet long and weighed 15,000 pounds. A whale is a very large and powerful animal. Different types of whales have different defence systems. Some whales have a very powerful tail slap. A tail slap would be powerful enough to kill a human. Some whales have very sharp teeth and powerful jaws such as the killer whale.
