　　参考消息网5月7日报道 美媒称，产自墨西哥的加利福尼亚湾石首鱼的鱼鳔被晒成干，在中国的黑市上出售。刺网捕捞也导致世界上最小的海豚小头鼠海豚几近灭绝。墨西哥政府加紧努力，试图阻止这些濒危物种灭绝。

　　据美国之音电台网站5月5日报道，墨西哥海军舰船在搜寻非法活动，但追踪的不是毒品贩子，而是在加利福尼亚湾使用违禁刺网捕捞加利福尼亚湾石首鱼的人。这种濒危鱼类的鱼鳔晒干之后在中国的黑市上可以卖上万美元一个。

　　墨西哥海军上校安德拉德说：“我们每天追踪巡查，总能发现五六个刺网。”

　　报道称，刺网捕捞导致世界上最小的海豚小头鼠海豚几近灭绝。2014年发表的一项研究报告显示，全世界仅存100头小头鼠海豚。在2012年还有200头。报告说，情况如此发展下去，这种海豚可能在2018年灭绝。

　　墨西哥政府一年前在海洋牧人协会的帮助下增加了取缔刺网的巡逻。

　　海洋牧人协会船长拉约尔说：“这些违禁海产品在亚洲有需求，在亚洲制止这种需求十分重要。”

　　加利福尼亚湾石首鱼的鱼鳔每个在墨西哥可以卖1600美元，但美国有关部门表示，在亚洲可以卖到一万到两万美元。

　　香港的海产品干货市场店铺的人说，当局的查禁使一些人不敢再卖这种违禁产品，但仍有人偷偷卖。

　　报道称，加利福尼亚湾石首鱼的鱼鳔汤据信可以治疗多种疾患，包括关节炎和怀孕反应。

　　海洋牧人协会船长说：“自从军队开始巡逻，我们从旁协助以来，情况好多了。白天已经没有人非法捕捞了，但夜间加强执法很重要。”墨西哥当地的渔民也加入了阻止非法捕捞的行列。

　　圣费利佩渔民合作社主席佩纳说：“不管做什么，不管有多少家庭要为此做出牺牲，我们不认为这样就能挽救小头鼠海豚。但是作为墨西哥人，我们必须这么做，墨西哥政府也应当努力挽救小头鼠海豚。”

　　报道称，现在还不清楚这些努力是否能最终挽救这些珍贵的海洋生物。
