Not anymore, thanks to the courts.
(how did this ever make it to an Appeals Court?)

* Sorry Charlie. A federal appeals court decided Wednesday that marine mammals
have no standing to sue to stop the U.S. Navy from using sonar. In upholding a
lower court decision, a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals said the world's cetaceans - whales, porpoises and dolphins - have no
standing under the Endangered Species Act, the Marine Mammal Protection Act or
the National Environmental Policy Act.

Perhaps not (and, I feel, unjustly not - but then there is rarely
justice for the least powerful in this world), but the people for whom
these animals are a specific point of interest and concern, do have
standing.

Some people estimate the US Navy has deafened and maimed tens of
thousands of porpoises, whales and dolphins. Some carcasses have shown a
completely destroyed bleeding mess of the animals' internal 'hearing'
organs.

A lot of the beached pods are thought to have been victims of the stupid
arrogant assholes. Once the animals lose navigation ability due to the
military supermen, it's usually not long before they die.

What a crock. I suppose the Canadian Navy had nothing to do with this? Or
the Russian Navy, or China, or, or ,or.....
