K-12 | Group Size: 8-35 | 50 Minutes | $95
This interactive, educational program focuses on endangered Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW) and the cutting-edge research and conservation efforts that assist in their recovery. Participants discover the synergy of different human impacts that have led to the decline of the population and methods scientists are using to learn what can be done to mitigate those problems. Students participate in science activities that simulate research methodology used in the field.
Are you a Title-1 school from Orange County, CA? Your class may be eligible to participate in this program for free as part of our ‘Spotlight on the Southern Resident Killer Whale’ program as part of our collaboration with the National Marine Mammal Foundation and Marine Mammal Care Center of L.A.
