A beautiful photograph that seems monochromatic. Two orca whales, Southern Resident, are seen fin and body above still grey ocean waters under a grey sky that bleeds horizon less into the ocean. — Photo by Andy Wright.

We hosted an inspiring online event last night focused on the Royal BC Museum book about killer whales, Spirits of the Coast. Our presenters, Jess Housty, Eric Mazimpaka, Nikki La’es , and Misty MacDuffee, were contributors to the book and all shared openly about their love for killer whales and the cultural and ecological role killer whales play on the Pacific coast.

We are now giving you a chance to win a copy of this fantastic book!

To enter, follow our presenters and tag two friends who might also be interested in learning more about our efforts to recover the endangered population Southern Resident killer whales.
