Young people will learn how orcas (who are part of the same biological order as dolphins) thrive at sea and have highly evolved forms of communication that are unique to each orca family. The book delves into the history of capturing orcas for sale to marine parks, which then attempt to tame and train the orcas to provide entertainment to park visitors. Readers will find stories about individual orcas-some of them world famous-and discover how difficult it is for them to adapt to captivity.
