About AAB. All About Belugas is a foundation founded in 2009, by Sandy Hines,after Beluga Whales were placed on the Endangered Species list in 2008. Our Goals.We strive to educate people on why the Beluga population is declining and what we can do to help them. We want businesses that are developing in the areas where Belugas remain, to be aware of exactly what they are doing to make this issue worse. AAB believes that everyone can play a special part in our organization by helping us spread the word and even donating to our cause.
