A nearly extinct porpoise might have more of a chance thanks to actor and environmental advocate Leonardo DiCaprio, who took to Instagram and Twitter to get help from the Mexican government.

Back in early May, DiCaprio posted about the vaquita porpoise, the world's smallest porpoise and most endangered marine mammal. There are only 30 left in the wild.*

The smallest member of the porpoise family is the most endangered marine mammal in the world. Unsustainable and illegal fishing practices have caused a dramatic decline in the vaquita's population. Fewer than 30 vaquita may be left in the wild and without immediate action, they face imminent extinction. Join me and @World_Wildlife and let President Peña Nieto of Mexico k**w that we demand action to protect the vaquita today. Link in bio.
