Repost from @ocean_networks 🔊sound on to hear the stark contrast between an orca communicating with and without a vessel passing through • Every year, Salish Sea residents eagerly await the return of the southern resident killer whales to their Summer feeding grounds. In late June 2020, the orca community’s three extended family groups or pods were spotted off the coast of Vancouver Island. This year a total of 73 orcas—made up of J, K, and L pods—have returned to a quieter ocean due to the COVID-19 shutdown, and recent sightings suggest that a member of J pod is pregnant. READ more about these endangered social mammals and their future, we spoke to Ocean Networks Canada’s junior staff Scientist Kristen Kanes, who specializes in passive acoustics research methods to study at-risk cetaceans 🎧 LISTEN & compare: this video reveals the difference between orcas communicating in hushed seas and orcas communicating with a vessel passing nearby.
