The white abalone is a marine snail, a deep-water species found between 80 and 200 feet on rocky reefs from Point Conception in California to Punta Abreojos in Baja California, Mexico. During the early 1970s, the Channel Islands were home to 1,000-5,000 white abalone per acre.

Scripps Institution of Oceanography biologists conducted surveys of white abalone deep water habitat in the early 1970 s, finding high concentrations of about one white abalone per square yard. Such densities were comparable to abundance of shallower species of abalone found in previously unfished or protected areas.

The white abalone was listed by NMFS as an endangered species on May 29, 2001, effective June 28, 2001, after a comprehensive status review of the species. The decline of white abalone was attributed to overutilization by commercial and recreational fisheries in the absence of adequate regulatory mechanisms.
