About this episode
The Trump administrations push for increased oil and gas drilling in the Gulf of Mexico threatens the critically endangered Rice’s whale, with fewer than fifty left.

The Interior Departments Endangered Species Committee will meet Tuesday to review the exemption request, which could set a dangerous precedent for drilling in other sensitive areas, leaving gulf wildlife even more vulnerable.
