When Gil Hewlett and I were writing our history of the orphan orcas Springer and Luna, Operation Orca, I first heard about the capture of the so-called Pedder Bay Five. These were five orcas held in a net pen by the aspiring whale entrepreneur Bob Wright in a bay near Victoria in 1970. It is a fascinating story with an unsolved mystery at its heart and it is now told, with panache, by the broadcaster/writer/musician Grant Lawrence in a ten-part audio series, "Whale Tale".
The series, an important chapter of coastal history, is found at Lawrence's website, grantlawrence.ca. Highly recommended.
