Great News

Sorry I haven't been around to post lately but now that I'm back I can share some great news!

The first thing:

The new K pod baby first seen in February was confirmed during the week! This calf was born to 38 year old K12 Sequim!
K43 and K12 are pictured in the left photo




The second thing:
All four 2008 northern resident calves have survived two years and have been named and are available for adoption though the BC Wild Killer Whale Adoption program (KWAP)! A88 (female), the fourth calf of Sonora (A42) has been named Cameleon. A89, the first calf of Schooner (A64) has been named Kanish. A90, the fifth calf of Skagit (A35) has been named Pine, and B17, the second calf of Klaskish (B14) has been named Nasparti. On a sad note Geelta (D15), is no longer available for adoption. Most likely she's presumed dead :(
