Intertidal Talks

Another whale-themed episode with one of my favorite people, Emma Luck (@Northern.Naturalist)! We compiled some of the most frequently asked questions we receive about killer whales to discuss for this episode. Follow Emma on Instagram to learn more about killer whales and other cetacean species! 

Dive into the history of cetacean captivity with Kendra. Starting in the 1860s and ending in 2022, Kendra explains some of the original facilities that kept cetaceans on display, the birth of the dolphinarium, the killer whale capture era, & modern-day captures. This episode is super brief and not a deep-dive into the history of captivity but if you are interested in a more in-depth episode on the topic, join our Patreon & vote! *Slight correction: Killer whale captures were banned in 1976 in the United States. Killer whale captures were not banned in Canada until 1990 BUT they had effectively stopped in 1976. (So no whales were captured in the Salish Sea after 1976. But technically the ban wasn't until 1990 for BC). SeaWorld was protesting this decision (read more about this here).  Join our Patreon to help vote for podcast topics each month & get access to loads of other marine science content!  Check out the Instagram post HERE!
