In November 2005, Washington's iconic killer whales, known as
Southern Resident orcas, were placed on the endangered species
list. It was a victory long overdue for a fragile population of
fewer than one hundred whales. Author and certified marine
naturalist Sandra Pollard traces the story and destinies of the
many Southern Resident orcas captured for commercial purposes in or
near the Puget Sound between 1964 and 1976. During this time, these
highly intelligent members of the dolphin family lost nearly
one-third of their population. Drawing on original archive
material, this important volume outlines the history of orca
captivity while also recounting the harrowing struggle--and
ultimate triumph--for the Puget Sound orcas' freedom.
