After the first day of seeing Big Mama and her brand new 2025 baby on May 21, we’ve had the opportunity to see her two additional times this month, on May 23 and 30! We hope she is sticking around to fill her belly after her long journey home. While we feel grateful to experience these special moments with Big mama and her little one, each time we see them we are confronted with the grim reality they face- strike risk from large commercial vessels transiting to and from the port of Vancouver, strike risk oblivious recreational vessels, and physical disturbance from whale watching (pleasure and commercial).
If you operate a vessel in the Salish Sea, please keep our relatives safe. Travel with caution, care, and tread lightly in our homeland.
