Booktalk: "This is a picture of the Southern Resident orca whales who swim in the Salish Sea between Washington state and Canada. In 2005 there were 82 orca whales. This year they are down to 75. This makes them an endangered species. Their survival is affected by boat noise, water pollution, climate change and not enough of their favorite food, Chinook salmon, because the Chinook salmon is also an endangered species. It pains me to know the orcas are suffering. I wish I could jump into the water and save the orcas myself. But I can’t. What I can do is help other people learn more about the orca whales. So, if you read no other book this summer, I urge you to read this. If you love animals, if you love whales, if you’re concerned about climate change and healing the planet, read this book. The more people know what’s going on with the orcas, the more we can help them survive and thrive." ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
The endangered Southern Resident orcas whistle and click their way around the waters of the Pacific Northwest in three small family groups while facing boat noise, pollution, and scarce food. Superpod introduces young readers to the experts who are training scat-sniffing dogs, inventing ways to treat sick orcas, quieting the waters, studying whales from the air, and speaking out. Author Nora Nickum also discusses her own work on laws to protect the orcas, tackles the dark history of orca capture for marine parks, and shares moments of wonder.
