- W4285249551 abstract "Confronted with the ruinous consequences of human presence for Earth and its biodiversityBiodiversity, human societyHuman society starts to feel the imperative for acting to stem such consequences, and the accompanying loss of species. Here, we address the case of conservingConserving marine mammalsMarine mammals, a group of species that have a special place in the hearts and minds of humans—thanks to the behavioral and cognitive abilitiesCognitive abilities possessed by many of these species and because some of them are highly social. However, does marine mammal conservationConservation work? Some notable gains have been achieved in recent decades that need to be viewed from the perspective of a somber background of losses and precipitous declines. As we assess successes against failures, we realize that there is no “one size fits all marine mammal conservationConservation” in a world so deeply affected by the intricacies of human relationships with the biosphere. We also argue that simply conservingConserving species or populations and their habitatsHabitat is not enough, as the culturesCulture of such species and populations also have high conservationConservation relevance. Furthermore, it is not only the animals’ physical well-beingWell-being that deserve attention but also the maintenance of their psychological healthHealth: there seems to be little point in maintaining stable populations if survivalSurvival for individuals requires a constant struggle to avoid fishing gearFishing gear, prey depletionPrey depletion, ship strikesShip strike, shipstrikes, intolerable noiseNoise levels, and chemical intoxication. We fear that future marine mammal conservationConservation efforts may be insufficient to prevent the disappearance of some populations and even species, while some others will have managed to flourish in a changed environmentEnvironment. Without falling into the trap of losing hope, the marine mammalMarine mammals conservationConservation communityCommunity should at least help steer the dynamics toward such “new normal” which is as similar as possible to the “old normal,” without forgetting baselines of the past and while refusing to constantly accept new baselines of an ever-diminished natural Earth." @default.
