Return of the Sea Otters: Restoring Oregon’s Coast
Corbin Maxey

In this episode, host Corbin Maxey chats with Chanel Hason from the Elakha Alliance, a nonprofit dedicated to restoring sea otters to their historic range along the Oregon coast. Learn why these charismatic marine mammals are keystone species, how their absence has led to an explosion of destructive sea urchins, and why the loss of kelp forestsis a growing environmental crisis. Plus, find out how you can help support sea otter reintroduction efforts from home!

In this episode, I interview former SeaWorld Killer Whale Trainer and author of “Killing Keiko: The True Story of Free Willy’s Return to the Wild”, Mark Simmons. Mark has been working with and training marine mammals for 30 years. Mark discusses what it was like training Killer Whales at SeaWorld, including “Tilikum”, the whale who killed trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010. He also discusses the documentary “Blackfish” and what the filmmakers left out. Mark then dives into his experience assisting with the “Keiko Project”, a failed attempt at trying to return ‘Free Willy’ whale “Keiko” back to the wild.

Order Mark’s book “Killing Keiko: The True Story of Free Willy’s Return to the Wild”
