One of Earth's most magnificent predators, the resident orca, faces a dire threat to its survival. These orcas are endangered due to the rapid decline of their primary food source: the chinook salmon, whose populations have plummeted to as little as 10 percent of their historic numbers. First, Peter sees the problem first hand while tracking orcas by boat in the Puget Sound. Then, he joins conservationists at an Oregon salmon hatchery for a very hands-on push to save this vital keystone species. Finally, Rae and Peter take part in a unique initiative along the Oregon coast where plastic pollution is turned into artistic sculptures to inspire change in human behavior. Experience both creative and scientific efforts to and bring the population of salmon and the creatures that depend on them back to the wild kingdom. See less
