ORCA is dedicated in preserving, defending and protecting all Ocean marine life.

Yes, we do feel for the poor dog; however, it’s not the dog's fault for irresponsible pet owners! 

It’s absolutely ridiculous and horrendous that people allow their dogs to be unleashed on beaches to go up to marine life that live there the beach and the ocean belong to the marine life, not humans and our pets! Next time you take your dog to the beach respect not just the beach but the ocean as well as its inhabitants…. far too many marine animals get injured or killed by irresponsible dog parents please be responsible when you have your dogs on the beach.

Absolutely heartbreaking. 💔

The Center of Whale Research said this is not the first time J31 has been observed carrying a deceased calf.
