Publisher's Synopsis
Key Selling Points This book introduces the reader to J pod, some of the most famous whales in the world, and its members, such as Onyx, Granny, Moby Doll and Scarlet. We find out where they live, what they eat, how they communicate and how they got their name. One of the pod members, Tahlequah, made headlines around the world for carrying her dead calf for seventeen days. Author Mark Leiren-Young is considered the "go-to guy" on southern resident orcas. He has written four books on them to date. This book includes additional resources, a glossary and a map that shows the orcas' migratory route.
