Orcas Need Free Flowing Rivers 6/28

The fate of Washington’s iconic orcas is linked to abundant salmon runs and free-flowing rivers. Join us for an inspiring evening of learning and taking action! Patagonia Ballard is hosting Orcas Need Free-Flowing Rivers, an in-store event with Whale Scout and Defenders of Wildlife that will discuss how restoring rivers can save orcas from extinction. We’ll be joined by Florian Graner of Sealife Productions showing his film, Return of the King, as well as enjoying an engaging presentation by independent scientist, Monika Wieland-Shields of Orca Behavior Institute.
