A team of researchers hope to understand the implications of a diminishing population of Southern Resident killer whales in the Salish Sea due to a lack of sufficient prey base, Chinook Salmon. Recent tragic events have gained worldwide attention, and biologists are determined more than ever to save them. For locals who’s national heritage has relied on these very waters for their own survival, losing Southern Resident killer whales would be like losing part of their family. There are solutions to giving southern residents a future, and we are going to explore them and share them with the world.
