Take the Seamountaineer Pledge<\/a><\/h4>\nCalifornia’s seamounts are vulnerable underwater volcanoes that shelter spectacular marine life. Scientists continue to discover new seamount species every time they explore, but seamounts are also at high risk from destructive fishing practices and other extractive industries. Only one<\/em> of over 60<\/em> California seamounts is currently protected! Take the Seamountaineer Pledge today to protect the California Seamounts.<\/strong><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"usgs-qTV6c2pjbBo-unsplash-1\"\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n
