The Case of the Wandering Whales

SALISH SEA WILD

Nearly half the entire population of Pacific gray whales passed away in the last eight years, but now they’re coming back.

Join SeaDoc as we dive into the mystery of how a tiny group of gray whales nicknamed the Sounders created their own sanctuary inside the Salish Sea that kept them safe from the massive die-off.

Did they find the gray whale Fountain of Youth?

Note: While Mexico permits people touching gray whales that approach boats, it is against US and Canadian regulations to approach or touch marine mammals.
