Description
Britain's west coast is home to only one pod of orcas, and they're heading rapidly towards extinction. In 2014, Dr Natalie Sanders joined the crew of the HV Silurian to seek out the West Coast Community of Orca and study them before we lose them forever. This timely and thought-provoking book offers a captivating yet poignant account, taking the reader from the Western Isles of Scotland to Vancouver Island and elsewhere. It discusses the orcas as individuals while also exploring the impact that issues like pollution, entanglement, military sonar and climate change have on whales and dolphins.
