kohola-kai: The 4th feature in my #100reasonsprojectare the Southern Resident Killer Whales. Orca are not endangered as a species, but this specific fish-eating population of 75 individuals is critically endangered due to loss of primary prey: chinook salmon. These salmon in turn are in decline because dams in the lower snake river hinder their ability to complete the reproductive cycle.The hydropower these dams produce has been largely sourced out elsewhere, giving them little purpose to us humans. Breaching these dams is the key way to let salmon recover and let these orca have enough to eat. Call and write to the politicians and ask that the 4 lower Snake River dams be breached - @pnwprotectors (on instagram) has a great guide on the actions page of their website. Marine animals are facing more human-caused threats now than ever before. With this project, my goal is to raise awareness for 100 threatened marine species- 100 reasons to care! -- source link
