The Navy's own environmental assessment reports that the planned SOCAL exercises may result in approximately 170,000 "takes" of marine mammals. The district court found that the tests may include "approximately 8,000 exposures powerful enough to cause a temporary threshold shift in the affected mammals' sense of hearing and an additional 466 instances of permanent injury to beaked and ziphiid whales."

Support our troops killing marine mammals
