Canada did likewise for its waters, shutting down orca captures in the Northwest for good. The whales of Puget Sound do not often return to the places where they were captured. With rare exceptions, you will no longer see killer whales, as you once did, in Penn Cove, Carr Inlet, Port Madison, Yukon Harbor, or any of the places where humans drove them into nets and captured them. They still visit many diverse places in the Puget Sound’s waters, are still seen from time to time chugging right past Seattle itself, but they do not go to those other places anymore. They seem to remember.
