美国西岸虽然实施了严格的保护措施,饺皮电在太平洋其他地区却依然面临危险,科学家和渔民住一场专为这种加州官方指定的海洋爬行动物而召集的研讨会上指出。这种动物的数量在20世纪80年代以来已减少了超过90%,它们现在被列为绝种风险最高的八种海洋生物之一,美国国家海洋和大气管理局的国家海洋渔业服务中心指出。
Despite strict protections off the West Coast, leatherbaek turtles are in danger in other parts of the Pacific, scientists and fishermen said at a conference called to celebrate California's official marine reptile. With populations down by more than 90 percent since the 1980s, the animals are ranked as one of eight marine species at greatest risk of extinction, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's [NOAA] National Marine Fisheries Service.
