Information about the Harbor Porpoise:

The Harbor Porpoise is one of six species of porpoise. It is also one of the smallest marine mammals, growing to be about 4.5 - 6.5 feet long. As the name implies, this porpoise tends to stay in coastal areas or estuaries, although occasionally they venture up rivers and can be found hundreds of miles from the ocean. Harbor Porpoises feed on non-spiny fishes like herring, cod, whiting, squid, pollock, and sardines. They have been hunted for centuries, but the animal is not considered endangered - although it appears their overall numbers are declining.
