Summary

Orcas are found in every ocean on the planet. But can they survive their relationship with humans?

Orcas Everywhere looks at how humans around the world (Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike) related to orcas in the past, how we relate to them now, and what we can do to keep cetacean communities alive and thriving. The book deals with science, philosophy, environmentalism, and ethics in a kid-friendly and accessible way.

Writer, filmmaker, and orca activist Mark Leiren-Young takes us back to when killer whales were considered monsters, and examines how humans went from using orcas for target practice to nearly loving them to death. If you know a young person who loves Free Willy or Finding Nemo, they will fall in love with these whales.

Profile Image for Seashell

It has my absolute favourite animal: the orca (killer whale.)

Orcas are the deadliest and most dangerous animals on earth. They eat everything. I would be extremely upset if orcas were starving. :( How could everyone not help an orca if something bad happened? Those children at my school are extremely stupid because they make the youngest orcas starve just by making loud noises. All of you must cut out children noise and boat noise so orcas can hunt prey more.
