Harbour. Hardcover. Condition: New. 280 pages. Dimensions: 8.9in. x 5.7in. x 1.1in.Winner of Foreword Magazines Best Nature Non-Fiction Award. In 1964 when the Vancouver Aquarium obtained its first killer whale, Moby Doll, the prevalent attitudes towards killer whales was that they were fierce and vicious man-eaters. Over the years, attitudes have begun to change, and orcas are now revered as loveable, intelligent creatures and iconic symbols of the marine environment. In January 2002, a young killer whale was discovered alone in the waters of Puget Sound near Seattle. Determining that the whale would not survive alone so far from home, a team of scientists captured Springer and transported her by boat north to her home range where she rejoined her family. At the same time Springer was making her historic journey, another lone whale turned up in Nootka Sound on the west coast of Vancouver Island. The people of Nootka Sound adopted Luna as their own, but he was a large, boisterous youngster who liked to cuddle boats and the government feared he would get into trouble. Another rescue was planned to return Luna to his family but this time there was no happy ending. In Operation Orca, winner of the 2008 Foreword Magazine Nature Book of the Year award, author Daniel Francis and long-time Vancouver Aquarium sta member Gil Hewlett give breadth to the complications, contradictions, and political posturing that twice engulfed the debate of whether to interfere or let nature take its course. Through the amazing story of these two orphan whales, Operation Orca tells the larger story of orcas in the Pacific Northwest, the people who have studied them and the transformation of the whales image from killer to icon.

SERRAI6, K. V.SHUST17, M. N. WARD18 and J. Z. ZUZUNAGA19 Decade-scale regimes of sardine Surdinops sagax and anchovy Engruulis spp. have been observed in the productive coastal waters of the North-Western, North-Eastem and South-Eastem Pacific and the South-Eastem Atlantic. In each of these systems, the two genera fluctuate out of phase with each other. The subdominant genus may initiate a recovery while the other species is still abundant, so population growth is not necessarily a response to a vacant niche. Rather, it appears to be triggered by formation of one or a few powerful year-classes. At high population levels, quality of sardine and their eggs decreased in Japan, leading to decreased production and survival of eggs, poor year- classes and stock collapse. Excessive fishing of strong year-classes early in the recovery stage may prevent a species from assuming dominance, so influencing the natural succession of species. This may greatly alter the structure and functioning of an ecosystem. For example, a mesopelagic forage fish may replace an epipelagic one, with severe , repercussions for predators that can only feed in the upper ocean, e.g. some seabirds.

Once shot at by fishermen as a dangerous pest, the orca is now the star performer in theme park shows. But both these images are one-dimensional, a disservice to a species that may be second only to human beings when it comes to behavioral, linguistic, and ecological diversity and complexity. Orcas are intelligent and family-oriented. They are long-lived and self- aware. They are socially complex, with cultural traditions. They are the largest animal, and by far the largest predator, held in captivity.

  • Proposal to Retire the Orca Tokitae/Lolita to Her Native Habitat in the Pacific Northwest
    PROPOSAL TO RETIRE THE ORCA LOLITA TO HER NATIVE HABITAT IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST Lolita in the 80’ long x 35’ wide x 20’ deep tank in Miami. Lolita’s seapen rehabilitation and retirement home in the San Juan Islands. Lolita’s seapen site in the San Juan Islands. The location for Lolita's seapen in the San Juan Islands. Depths are at low mean tide, in fathoms. Seapen site in the San Juan Islands. TABLE OF CONTENTS I. Introduction II. Executive Summary III. Background IV. Lolita’s Retirement Plan A. Step by step plan B. Goals C. Permitting D. Transport I. Introduction (revised Feb. 17, 2018) The original proposal for Lolita’s rehabilitation and retirement was first prepared by Center for Whale Research, Friday Harbor, WA, in April, 1995, (see Marine Biologist Ken Balcomb's Comprehensive Retirement Plan - A pre-proposal to return and rehabilitate a captive killer whale named Lolita to her home waters in Greater Puget Sound. Prepared by Center for Whale Research, April, 1995, For the 1995 Annual Meeting of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums in Seattle) and has been developed in collaboration with Orca Network in Freeland, WA. This draft proposal for Lolita’s retirement assumes that all concerned want the best outcome for Lolita, and further assumes that moving Lolita from Miami to her native waters in the Pacific NW in a carefully phased and professionally conducted transport, rehabilitation, and retirement program, with prescribed contingencies to meet all foreseeable circumstances, would be physically and mentally therapeutic and beneficial for her overall health and well-being.

  • What the Whale Was: Orca Cultural Histories in British Columbia Since 1964
    WHAT THE WHALE WAS: ORCA CULTURAL HISTORIES IN BRITISH COLUMBIA SINCE 1964 by Mark T. Werner B.A., St. Olaf College, 2008 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2010 © Mark T. Werner, 2010 Abstract My thesis argues that indigenous historical narratives demonstrate an understanding of the killer whale subjectivity that settler society is only beginning to comprehend. Set in the late 20th century, a period when human relationships with killer whales were undergoing a fast-paced reconfiguration, my research explores the spaces of orca-human encounter in regards to three killer whales: Moby Doll, the world’s first orca held in captivity; Skana, the first orca showcased at the Vancouver Aquarium; and Luna, the orphaned orca of Nootka Sound. Each example speaks to the common process by which humans project culturally-specific narratives and beliefs onto the lives of the whales. In the case of Moby Doll, I argue that the dominant discourse regarding the whale conformed to a strict gender script that functioned to silence other narratives and realities of Moby’s captivity. In my following chapter, I look at how the close relationship between Paul Spong and Skana inspired the scientist to abandon his most fundamental assumptions about orcas in favor of new affordances for orca subjectivity. Furthermore, I argue that the scientific research of John Lilly, a scientist who had a similar conversion experience with dolphins, inspired whole new literatures and imaginations of intelligent dolphins in New Age culture.

  • Luna / Tsu-Xiit the “Whale”: Governance Across (Political and Cultural) Borders1 by Emma S
    Luna / Tsu-xiit the “Whale”: Governance Across (Political and Cultural) Borders1 By Emma S. Norman, Ph.D., Northwest Indian College Abstract: This case examines the multiple discourses (identities) created around Luna, a lone juvenile orca (or killer whale, Orcinus orca) in the remote waters off of the northwest coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. This case illustrates the complexities associated with managing “resources” that transcend both political borders (in this case, the Canada-U.S. border) and cultural borders (Western - non-Western). The case compares the experiences of the Mowachaht/Muchalaht First Nation, which recognizes Luna (or, in the perception and language of the Mowachaht/Muchalaht, Tsu- xiit) as its chief incarnate, with those of governmental employees (Fisheries and Oceans Canada, or DFO) who are charged with the task of protecting marine life and habitat. The case illustrates how a single living being can hold multiple meanings to multiple people. In so doing, the story of Luna brings to light two main points: Modern conceptions of nature are constructed socially, and governance of shared resources requires an acceptance of diverse worldviews – particularly in the case Native and Western belief systems. Background In July 2001 a lone juvenile orca was observed in the remote waters off of the northwest coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The killer whale2 was a curious sight. After more than 30 years of research, scientists have come to believe that orcas are social creatures that stay with their families (or pods) for life. Even when the animals are fully grown, they are not known to stray far from their mothers.
