In this episode of the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses the devastating news of Tokitae's passing at the Miami Seaquarium. Tokitae was the last orca captured from Puget Sound in the 1970s and was set to be returned to her home before her health declined. Andrew explores the implications of Tokitae's death on orca conservation efforts and the profound impact it has had on the Lummi Nation, who have cultural ties to orcas. Tune in to learn more about this somber event and discover how you can take action to protect the ocean.
