In this online format, The Secret Lives of Killer Whales: Students will use Dtags to track the underwater behavior of endangered killer whales.
What do the endangered Southern Resident killer whales (SRKW) do under water? Are they hunting? Sleeping? Traveling? Is their behavior different at night? How deep do they dive? How long can they stay underwater? Using data collected by Dr. Marla Holt and the researchers at Northwest Fisheries Science Center/NOAA, we will use scientific method, create our own hypothesis and test those using actual data collected from a tag stuck to the back of an actual SRKW!
Download the data sheet, record actual data and the experience the world as the whale sees it and experiences it in this interactive activity.
