Greek version home about the Kit Background information MEDITERRANEAN: AN ENDANGERED SEA The Mediterranean, a sea that has given rise to civilisations and religions, was the stage where exchanges, conflicts and developments took place and continue to do so to this day. If its people do not care for it, it is in danger of losing its incomparable natural wealth. The reason is the irresponsible use by not only the 300 million who inhabit its shores but also by the millions of visitors who flood its coasts, constituting a huge tourist industry. The Mediterranean sea belongs to its marine life as well as to humans. Whether the natural environment of the Mediterranean will be able to overcome the huge difficulties that it faces, depends on our actions alone.

Imagine during the next few weeks that you are in a floating classroom on "The Circle of Life Virtual Voyager." Our learning voyage will take us to The Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research & Preservation, where we will have the chance to study the marine mammal and sea turtle populations off Long Island. Now don't get seasick! The good people at The Riverhead Foundation are counting on YOU to help them with their mission! A LITTLE BACKGROUND FIRST: According to a publication from Ocean Planet , a seacoast is the border between two worlds - the terrestrial (land) and the marine (water). When you go to the beach, have you noticed how the ocean's currents, waves, and winds sculpt the shoreline, by carrying off and depositing sand? These forces of nature shape the land and affect the living populations. Sometimes the animals that live in deeper water are thrown off course. They come close to the shoreline and may actually be found on the beach. They may be injured, sick, or lost and soon become cold, hungry, or dehydrated. But there is help for some animals. In many locations around New York, when beached animals are sighted, professionals and volunteers from the Riverhead Foundation are on the scene! Sick, cold, or injured animals are immediately rescued and placed in a "

Choose A Topic Home Marine Life Fact Sheets What You Can Do Marine Resources Committee Shellfish of Whatcom County Drayton Harbor SPD Portage Bay SPD Orca or Killer Whale ( Orcinas orca Description: Orcas, also known as killer whales, are one of the most recognizable animals of the Pacific Northwest. All orcas have similar black and white coloring. Orcas can be distinguished from one another by the unique gray saddle pattern behind their dorsal fin, and by the markings on their dorsal fins and tail flukes. Dorsal fins are curved in females and immature males, and become straight and triangular, reaching a height of up to 6 feet, in mature males. Males grow to a length of 30 feet and can weigh over 8 tons. Females grow to 23 feet long and usually weigh over 4 tons. Juveniles have the same coloration as adults. Distribution: In the maps of Whatcom County, right, orca whale territory is indicated in purple. This Anchor Environmental map illustrates PSEP data. Click on map for a larger image. Reproduction: Ecology: Orcas engage in a variety of behaviors, such as breaching and spyhopping. A whale is considered breaching if 2/3 of its body is out of the water. This is a playtime activity. In spyhopping, an orca raises its head vertically out of the water. Orca whales have excellent eyesight and it is believed that spyhopping is a way for them to look at their surroundings.

There are three classes of fish: Class Agnatha (jawless fish) - these primitive fish have no jaws, do not have paired fins, and have a skelton made of cartilage (not bone). Examples: hagfish, lampreys. Class Chondrichthyes (cartilaginous fish) - these fish have a skeleton made of cartilage, paired fins, and no swim bladder. Their skin has tooth-like scales (called denticles). Fertilization of eggs is internal. Examples: sharks , skates, rays Class Osteichyes (bony fish -these fish have a skeleton made of bone and paired fins. They also have teeth that are fixed onto the upper jaw. They have a swim bladder (an air filled sac that helps them with buoyancy) that opens into the gullet. Bony fish do not have to swim to breathe (to push water through the gills). Most fish are bony fish.

Some creatures migrate across water while others migrate up and down in their environment. Animal migration is the periodic movement of animals responding to changes in climate, or food ability, or to reproduce. The most common type of animal migration is from one place to another, and then back again. Migration may be seasonal as it is with some birds in the spring and autumn. During the months of February and March hundreds of thousands of seals and otters swim towards the earth. Whales cross the oceans in family pods in autumn from subpolar to subtropical waters to have their young. They then make the return journey to the colder, food-rich waters. Certain fish, including herring and mackerel migrate in the thousands. Sharks and turtles may travel in groups or alone.

Our planet's oceans are in trouble and the plant and animal life they sustain are being threatened. WWF calls its marine initiative Ocean Rescue . As the global leader in safeguarding these marine ecosystems, WWF aims to achieve a bold goal in the next 10 years: the creation of stable marine networks that encompass 100 marine protected areas worldwide. At the same time, we will continue our landmark efforts to end destructive fishing practices, stop illegal trade in marine wildlife, and reduce pollution on land and sea. WWF's marine conservation experts work in more than 40 countries, conducting research, initiating dialogue with decision-makers and fishing industry leaders, and advocating solutions all in an effort to champion the conservation of the marine environment and fishing communities around the world. In order to achieve conservation results, WWF employs innovative strategies, like using market incentives to promote responsible fishing, and works with governments and other conservation partners to advance policies that will sustain the vital and diverse wildlife and habitats that constitute the ocean's web of life. WWF is crafting solutions for fishermen, coastal communities and the tourism industry that make economic sense while saving vulnerable species and their habitats.

Fish In Depth : Analysis California's Marine Life Protection Act How Marine Reserves Will Help Preserve Ocean Life This NRDC analysis of California's Marine Life Protection Act was written when the legislation was pending before the California State Legislature. On October 8, 1999, Governor Gray Davis signed the bill into law. Introduction Why Marine Life Reserves? Marine Life Protection Act Introduction Scientists believe that one important way to preserve biodiversity in the seas is to create networks of marine reserves where fishing is not allowed and pollution is minimized. Proposals for such a network in southern California's Channel Islands are now under discussion. These islands combine majestic underwater settings with an extraordinary diversity of marine life, nurtured by the complex intermingling of warm Baja currents with cold currents from Alaska. NRDC has helped persuade the California Fish and Game Commission to start a collaborative process to designate zones in the waters surrounding the islands where no fishing will be permitted. In the 1998 legislative session, NRDC helped usher through the legislature a bill to set up a network of marine protected areas, only to see it vetoed by former Governor Wilson. In the 1999 session, Assemblyman Kevin Shelley reintroduced the bill in the California Assembly as A.B. 993, the Marine Life Protection Act. The bill passed both the Assembly and the Senate with bipartisan support. With a new administration in California, a legislature lead by environmental supporters, and widespread support for efforts to ensure that fish and marine animals thrive, NRDC is optimistic that the Marine Life Protection Act has a good chance of becoming law in 1999. Nonetheless, as former Governor Wilson's veto demonstrates, the bill's passage into law is not guaranteed, so we continue our efforts to mobilize strong citizen support for marine reserves and for this legislation.
