...As Close As Can Be...well, how about a sighting from New Zealand...what a great video clip...

Ingrid Visser, researcher in New Zealand, might be able to identify these whales...from the eye patch, the male's dorsal fin, and the mom and calf...

Jeanne can you please comment on the Orca's that were taken? I'm unclear if they were taken from SJI. http://action.sumofus.org/a/sochi-orca-whales/5/2/?sub=fb

Hi Tricia,
I looked up 'where were the orca for the sochi olympics captured?'
What I found, according to the article: they were captured in waters north of Japan. If you will type in that search you will get more information. Hope this helps.
