The only known populations of Unarmored Threespine Stickleback, a fish, are in the Santa Clara Rivers drainage to the Los Angeles River and in San Diego County. The Palos Verdes Blue Butterfly, originally found only in Palos Verdes Peninsula, was thought extinct until it was rediscovered in San Pedro in 1994. The El Segundo Blue Butterfly is found only on two acres on a Chevron Oil Refinery and at the western end of LAX. The Gray Whale migrates along the west coasts of Mexico, the U.S., and Canada. It is federally protected.
