Kaikoura's Cash Cow Protected

The NZ government has just launched the Kaikoura Whale Sanctuary on the east coast of the South Island.
The area is biologically rich and includes 500m deep ocean canyons which are home to giant squid which is the preferred prey of sperm

whales.
The sanctuary is nearly 5000 square km in area and provides protection for the sperm, humpback, Southern right, blue, killer and other whales that frequent the area. It is particularly relevant for the local and well-established sperm whale tourism industry which is now worth $134 million dollars a year.
Kaikoura is undoubtedly an excellent location for watching whales. The deep canyons are close to shore and the frequently sighted sperm whales make a spectacular sight seen against the area’s snow capped mountains.
So...
can we expect/hope that the desperately-needed New Zealand Dolphin (comprising the Hector's and Maui's dolphins) sanctuary will follow shortly? Our government has recognised the economic

importance of the Kaikoura whale watching industry but it also needs to recognise that our own unique dolphin is a very important tourism drawcard as well.
We must not be the generation under whose watch these unique creatures become extinct.
