LET’S BRING SALMON BACK TO EVERY RIVER AND CREEK IN BC
WE SUPPORT RESTORATION OF SALMON SPAWNING GROUNDS AND
ENVIRONMENTAL INITIATIVES TO HELP THE ORCAS
Ken Balcomb, Director of the Center For Whale Research
The Canadian Orca Rescue Society has launched the Orca Food Drive to help save the Southern Resident Pods. Since we can’t deliver salmon to them, the best way to help them is to help the salmon thrive. Therefore, our mission is to bring salmon back to every river and creek in BC.
To do this, we bring our life-sized inflatable orcas and The Orca Education Program to schools and environmental events throughout BC to share our message of conservation and restoration.

The life-size inflatable orcas which we use in our outreach program are representative of individuals in the Southern Resident pods. We bring these to as many events as we can to promote the environment and protect orca habitat.
We make these life-size inflatable orcas by hand and welcome any assistance in their construction.
Orca Education Program
We bring our inflatable orcas to events which promote environmental awareness. Each inflatable orca is modeled after an individual of the southern Resident pods. Eventually we will have one to represent each member of the Southern Residents. Our life-sized inflatable orcas are a crowd-pleaser at any event we attend, and we get to share information about the orcas with people of all ages.
As part of our outreach program, we bring our Orca Education Program to schools to present to students. This engages young kids in finding solutions and taking action to help solve some of the environmental problems we face today.
If you would like us to present the Orca Education Program to your school or group, contact us and we’ll see if we can do it!
What you can do: Donate….Give your Time….Spread the Word
We always need people to help with the setup and participation at these events. We support the Four Mile Creek Hatchery, the Peninsula Stream Society and The San Juan Restoration Society and we are actively investigating new hatchery technologies to determine the optimal method of regenerating the rivers and salmon stocks.
You can get involved and make a difference!
