Give Them Space: How boaters can help champion orca recovery
Channel: Washington Conservation Action
Date: 15/06/2022

Boaters have an important role to play in championing the conservation and recovery of the iconic and beloved Southern Resident orcas. We invite boaters and the general public to join us during Orca Action Month for a virtual presentation by the Give Them Space campaign, a conservation education and public outreach effort to help reduce noise and disturbance around our critically endangered Southern Resident orca population. The presentation will cover Southern Resident orca biology and family structure, their unique food needs, and the science behind the three main threats to their survival. We’ll share ways everyone can support orca recovery, including specific actions boaters can take on the water to help. Join us to learn more!
