Seven Washington species face endangerment due to pollution, habitat loss, and human activity, prompting state action.
Seven Washington species—gray whale, common loon, American white pelican, pygmy whitefish, margined sculpin, Olympic mudminnow, and Larch Mountain salamander—are at risk of becoming endangered or threatened due to pollution, habitat loss, noise from boats, lead fishing gear, and human disturbance during breeding seasons.
State officials urge reducing toxic runoff, protecting wetlands and forests, avoiding sensitive areas, using non-toxic fishing gear, and cooperating with Canada to reduce ocean noise and prevent oil spills.
More details are available on the state’s Biological Diversity website.
