Killer Whales Invade Los Angeles... Museum

from Skaana with Mark Leiren-Young

"Why I think orcas are better than us... I've never heard of an orca war." A Canadian museum exhibit about orcas - Orca Our Shared Future - splashes down at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. The museum's Mammalogist, Amanda Killian, and Skaana host Mark Leiren-Young (who wrote and consulted on the exhibit for the Royal BC Museum) dive into the wild world of orcas - their lives, their language, the way they evolved and how humans in LA relate to them. They also dive into the behind-the-scenes world of museums. The exhibit is running until April 25, 2027.For more on Orcas Our Shared Future and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles CountyThe official exhibit siteFacebookInstagramYouTube To Support/follow SkaanaSubscribe to the Skaana newsletter on SubstackJoin and support the Pod at PatreonLinktreeFacebookBlueskyInstagramSkaana on iTunes… Skaana.ca & SpotifyTo Support/follow Mark Leiren-Young:Subscribe to Mark Leiren-Young’s newsletter on SubstackLinktreeFacebookBlueskyInstagramThreadsBooks and classes for sale from Team Skaana**Amazon links are affiliate links and support our podcast, thanks for clicking!**Octopus Ocean by Mark Leiren-YoungSharks Forever by Mark Leiren-YoungAudiobooks by Mark Leiren-Young (Killer Whale Who Changed the World, Orcas Everywhere & Never Shoot a Stampede Queen) on Audible.comThe Killer Whale Who Changed the World – print and e-bookThe Killer Whale Who Changed the World on SpotifyOrcas Everywhere on SpotifyOrcas Everywhere; Orcas of the Salish Sea & Big Whales, Small World The Force of Doubt by Rayne Ellycrys BenuSubscribe to the Skaana newsletter at Substack: https://skaanapod.substack.com/Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/skaana Hosted on Acast.
