Good news--new L pod calf. Calf's mother and s*x to be determined. Calf was spunky, sandwiched between two females, when seen in inland waters June 13th and 14th.

Researchers are still trying to determine the mother of the newborn spotted June 14 with members of L-Pod.

Congrats to Orca Behavior Institute for taking this action during June, Orca Action month. Hope lots of World Cup visitors see these fins and take action.

See OBI's site to be in the know and get in on the action.

OBI's research on the Southern Residents focuses on presence/absence in the Salish Sea, behavioral budget and behavioral shifts over time, and acoustic communication.

URGENT
Take action IMMEDIATELY to oppose the ESA Amendments Act of 2025. The Act will reduce protections for endangered species. It requires economic and national security assessments to be considered in listing decisions, among many other bad provisions. Economics and national security likely will win out over endangered species protection in most cases.
