Orca Awareness Month
posted on June 3, 2008

Orca Awareness Month

In the US June is Orca Awareness Month.

The Southern Community of Resident J, K & L pods were designated as Endangered in November 2005 under the US Endangered Species Act and also in Canada. All three pods are found in Southern BC and WA waters from June to October/November. The major factors in the decline of their population include aquarium captures, depleted food stocks, toxic pollution, noise and increasing boat traffic.
