Status Updates From Of Orcas and Men: What Kill...

it's actually gutting me how sad the stories of these killer whales are. Lolita spent her whole life performing in captivity and mere months before she was to be brought back to PNW waters she died.

I urge everyone to read this book or at least do a bit of research on killer whales

y'all this book was published before Tokitae (Lolita) passed away and he keeps referring to her as the last captive orca alive from the Penn Cove captures-shut up I'll sob

Keiko gonna make me cry rn. It's giving punch the monkey

god this shit breaks my heart. why were so many people okay with keeping orcas in captivity?

The Keiko Project!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

This was written by a journalist which is amazing, but pretty much the entire part about being worried about an oil spill is now outdated (yay! Not a concern really anymore!)

This is making me wanna move to seattle BAD 😆

Fun fact: the words “orca” and “orc” share the same root Latin origin. Orca orcinus’ name roughly translates to “demon from hell” 😆 😆
