SAN DIEGO — The global fight to save the world’s most endangered marine mammal, the vaquita, has crossed the border into San Diego. 10News Anchor Kimberly Hunt has reported on the efforts to save the small porpoise from extinction for the last three years. The vaquita are not the target of illegal fishermen, but they are the victims as fishermen drop illegal gillnets in an effort to catch a highly prized fish, just for its bladder.
Crosta launched Operation Fake Gold in 2017. His team infiltrates wildlife trafficking rings and works with law enforcement agencies to bring them down. They've identified 14 totoaba syndicates and shared intelligence about 40 traffickers. Chin Wang, also known as Summer Wang, was also charged for selling 23 totoaba swim bladders that were illegally imported into the U.S. from Mexico for almost $250,000. In court documents, she admitted to offering to sell $1 million worth of bladders.
"We want you out of nature crime. And so they're, they're placing less orders of the TSA. And this means less illegal gill nets in the Sea of Cortez, and this means less poaching and less marine creatures killed in the sea," Crosta says.
