Orcas In Pedro

As soon as I got back to my car after getting off the Voyager from Friday afternoon’s whale watching trip, I called Diane with a full report. Great trip. We started out with a pod of Risso’s dolphins, then found the first blue whale less than a mile from the harbor entrance.

Whalers pursued the blue whale without mercy and the slaughter only ended when their numbers where so low that it became unprofitable to hunt them. There was a time when hundreds of thousands of these giants roamed the oceans of the…
