The killer whales (orcas) are # 1 killers of endangered belugas, narwhals and other large mammals on the the sea in the North. Just what is DFO doing about it. Are they saying, don’t kill the orcas,, they’re beautiful animals. Just which mammals are they protecting. Both ?… doesn’t make sense.

Beluga whales aren’t endangered though. In fact their status is of “least concern”.
