Granny


"Granny" is the oldest known Orca in the world and is part of our resident J-Pod. She travels throughout the Salish Sea and has been seen from Carkeek Park. The inspiration for the project came from finding more plastic than starfish along the coast and wanting to do something to raise awareness. Several myths around the world often depict flying whales to symbolize a world turned upside down.

Granny was created from over 15,000 non-recycleable plastic lids that were collected in only a month. People who saved lids frequently said they were shocked by how many they were able to collect and would take steps to reduce their consumption. I hope that Granny inspires visitors to learn more about plastics in the sea and our resident Orcas.
