Only 73 southern resident killer whales are left, so seeing a whole pod off the Oregon coast is wild! They usually stick to northern waters, but with Chinook salmon getting scarce, these orcas might be following the fish south—right after a huge dam removal opened up new salmon habitat. It’s proof that when we fix rivers, nature bounces back (and brings the whales with it). Fingers crossed for more sightings like this! #Orcas #ConservationWin #Wildlife #NatureIsHealing #OregonCoast #Science
