FILE - In this Jan. 29, 2015 image made from video, an endangered Kemp's Ridley sea turtle swims as it is released into the Gulf of Mexico, 24 miles off the coast of Louisiana, after being rehabilitated by the Audubon Institute. After the spill, the number of the turtles' nests dropped 40 percent in one year in 2010. "We had never seen a drop that dramatic in one year before," according to Selina Saville Heppell, a professor at Oregon State University. The population climbed in 2011 and 2012 but then fell again in 2013 and 2014, down to levels that haven't been that low in nearly a decade, she said. (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert, File) (AP)

In this Sept. 7, 2014 photo, new pipelines that will carry gas from Texas to Mexico, eventually reaching the city of Guanajuato, are laid underground near General Bravo, in Nuevo Leon state, Mexico. So far this year, thieves across Mexico have drilled so many illegal taps into state-owned pipelines, siphoning off gas and oil, that they're on pace to set a new annual record.

Zinke: Oil more important than birds

FILE - In this April 10, 2008 file photo, the head of a right whale peers up from the water as another whale passes behind in Cape Cod Bay near Provincetown, Mass. The endangered whales increasingly are frequenting the bay, enticed by the fine dining possibilities of its plankton-rich waters. They foraged in the bay for centuries, where their numbers were decimated when whalers hunted them for their oil and plastic-like baleen bone. For a stretch in the late 1990s, fewer than 30 whales were sighted each year. (AP Photo/Stephan Savoia, File) (AP)
