Intoduction

Imagine you are an orca swimming with your pod. Then,a pod member you don't even know gets caught in a fishing net. You are scared, and decide to stay away from the fishing nets.

Orcas are endangered because they are sensitive to water pollution and global warming. Also, orcas get tangled in fishing nets. Orcas also get killed for their skin and insides.
