This week's guest on the podcast is Howard Garrett. In the episode we talk about the beginnings of the "Orca Network", which led to the Langley Whale Center on Whidbey Island. Howard has dedicated 26 years to freeing the captured, and famous, Lolita, which he's also been filmed as the expert on the matter for the smash hit documentary film, "Black Fish".

Learn more about Lolita and the work to release her by visiting the Orca Network website.

Follow Orca Network on Facebook for live reporting of whale sightings in the Puget Sound, including orca sightings.
