With so many public schools closed, our team of marine biologists are hosting an online Q&A about killer whales (orcas) and salmon. Depending on interest levels and our organizational capacity, we’d love to expand this to other age-appropriate marine biology topics in the coming weeks. Let us know what you’d like us to talk about. Check out oceansinitiative.org for more info about our team. And email your kids’ questions to team AT oceansinitiative DOT org. We’ll choose 10 to talk about Monday. No ticket or registration necessary. We’ll be live on Facebook and Instagram (@oceansinitiative). We hope to “see” you Monday, and several more times until schools reopen.
