The Southern Resident killer whale population has fallen to only 73 because three adult killer whales reported missing in July are now presumed to be dead
The Washington state-based Center for Whale Research said the killer whales, also known as orcas, were from an extremely endangered population that frequented the Salish Sea in southwestern Canada and northwestern Washington state daily in the summer months. But a lack of Chinook salmon means they are rarely seen in those waters anymore.A female baby Southern Resident Killer Whale has been born.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Marine Fisheries Service estimates that there are about 50,000 killer whales globally, with 2,500 living in the eastern North Pacific Ocean.The Southern Resident orca population is a large extended family made up of three social groups, called pods and named J, K and L. The three missing whales are J17, K25 and L84. J17 was not in good condition last winter, researchers say.
