Mammals Editorial Review

Endangered Orcas: The Story of the Southern Residents is a comprehensive and well-written account of the plight of the Southern Resident Killer Whales in the Pacific Northwest. The author, Monika Wieland Shields, has done a fantastic job of bringing these endangered orcas to life through facts, science, and personal experiences. This book is a must-read for orca enthusiasts, researchers, biologists, and anyone interested in the survival and future of these beloved marine mammals. The book covers a range of topics including the history and current situation of the Southern Resident Killer Whales, the issues surrounding their survival or extinction, and how humans have impacted these animals and their environment. Shields also presents "both sides" of some of the more controversial topics surrounding the SRKWs. Overall, Endangered Orcas is an easy read that provides lots of information and insights into the dynamic of human impact on orcas. It reminds one of Jane Goodall's famous books, with just enough science, personal experience, stories, and truth. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in whales, animals, or oceans in general.
