Luna the Orca (killer whale) and dog interact! Rare interspecies footage captured back in 2003 in Nootka Sound. #orcas #killerwhales #dogs #viralvideos #interspecies Luna the killer whale socializes with dog in 2003 near Gold River, BC. Luna/L98 was a male southern resident (fish eating) orca who died march 10 2006 when he was hit by a large tug boat in Nookta Sound. Luna lived a solitary life when he found himself alone hundreds of miles away from his feeding grounds. He made friends with people but more concerning with boats. Unfortunately this relationship ended his short life. But his story left behind a legacy about his species and why they are important. The southern resident killer whales are an endangered species living in the pacific northwest who rely on salmon as their food source. Salmon is at also at risk on the west coast due to pollution, over fishing and fish farms. We must do all we can to protect both salmon and endangered southern resident killer whales and Luna highlights this plight. If you care about killer whales and want to see them survive, then educate yourself more about their struggle and how you can make a difference.
