Meet A135, a young killer whale from the A5 pod

We know them by the shape of their fin and the grey saddle patch behind it, markings as unique as a fingerprint. We know their family too: their mother, Current, and their big brother, Venture.

A135 is one of only about 300 Northern Resident killer whales left, a threatened population.

Ocean Wise is based in the traditional and unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xÊ·məθkwÉ™y̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and SÉ™lÌ“ílwÉ™taÊ”/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We work across Turtle Island and beyond, supporting Indigenous peoples in their vital work on ocean conservation and biodiversity whenever possible or as we are invited to.
