    Her dead calf resting on her nose, an orca whale has swum in mourning for more than 3 days in the Pacific Northwest. "I think she’s just grieving, unwilling at this point to let the calf go, like, 'Why, why, why?' "https://nyti.ms/2Aiiwz3

        We need to restore wild salmon populations on the Pacific coast. Salmon is the lynchpin of those ecosystems. It's food for Southern Resident orcas and they are starving to death. The calf probably died because mom was half-starved.

        J35, the mama orca, is 4 years old, but she's the size of a 1-year-old because she's not getting enough salmon to eat.

        There's a lot we can do to revive salmon habitats, starting by getting rid of a bunch of obsolete dams that prevent baby salmon from reaching the sea.

        There are 4 dams on the Lower Snake River, and they generate only 3% of the region's power, but they effectively wall off thousands of miles of still-pristine salmon hatching habitat from the sea.

        There's a world, an existence someplace, where whales and elephants rule. They're that smart, that imbued with emotion. Just a couple more evolutionary steps and they're there.

        Yeah, there’s way more blame to go around for the plight of the orcas than just Sea World.
