What a guy... the degradation of the Orca’s environment is dreadful and it’s unconscionable to keep them in captivity for our pleasure. Great story 👏🏻

Thank you Andrew for such a moving story. I recently read the news about Toki and her years in captivity. How badly we need more Ken Balcombs! It seems that nothing can stop the accelerated decline of wildlife and the climate change affecting every aspect of global quality of life. When will it be too late?

Thanks indeed. You're quite right. Ken devoted his life to the orcas, but he learned a lot from them, I think.
