How mother orca Tahlequah and her dead calf tell the story of climate change

Salmon are struggling to survive. So are the families of endangered southern resident orcas, with a population of just 73, not improved in years.

It's #ManateeAwarenessMonth! ✨ Manatees are social animals, and tend to gather in large groups that can number in the hundreds. During these gatherings they are often observed bumping into and rubbing against each other, which is thought to be a form of play.

In a submission to the Major Projects Office earlier this month, @Raincoast urged the government not to fast-track the project, pointing to "significant consequences for Fraser River Chinook #salmon and #endangered Southern Resident killer whales." #orcas nationalobserver.com/2026/10…

Coupeville WA at Penn Cove - the location of SeaWorld’s most infamous #Blackfish captures which led to Tokitae going to Miami SeaQuarium - I droned it earlier and believe those floating docks were where the whales were lasso’d and hauled out @OrcaSOS

The @Raincoast fact sheets bring together key findings on the ecological importance of the Fraser River Estuary, the role of estuarine #habitat in sustaining wild salmon, and the cumulative pressures facing #endangered Southern Resident killer #whales. They also explain the scientific and legal principles that should guide decisions about projects. raincoast.org/2026/10/scient…

.@Raincoast remains concerned that there is no benefit from listing RBT2 as a PONI this late in the review process and that it will bring significant consequences for Fraser River Chinook #salmon and #endangered Southern Resident killer whales. #orcas raincoast.org/2026/10/listin…
Listing Roberts Bank Terminal 2 as a Project of National Interest

Listing Roberts Bank Terminal 2 as a Project of National Interest

The evidence does not support treating this project as being in the national interest.

Replying to @TNorrisBC
The carney gov gave our Nation exactly 1 month to provide feedback on a project that if has a spill could mean the complete collapse of the Fraser salmon population as well as the destruction of the remaining 76 Southern Resident Killer whales. Not to mention the numerous health impacts of living next to a marine gas terminal .. But yeah only the cons are bad..

“Southern Resident killer whales eat wild Chinook salmon. They don’t eat fish farm fish.” Phasing out open-net pen fish farms by 2029 is a critical step we can take to protect wild salmon and help these whales recover. Learn more about why this matters: firstnationwildsalmonallianc…
