This book is for the SuperGoddess Tess Elizabeth Adam Lady Caeleste. I made Tess the author of this book because even though she is not the author of its content she is the source-author of my very deep concerns about the well being of the Killer Whales of the British Columbia Gulf Stream Islands. Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW) will become extinct soon unless more people become interested in helping them. So many alarm bells are ringing. I can feel their pain and because of Tess I have responded to their suffering. Tess is also the source-author of my very deep affection for these Orcas. This synopsis is the first of its kind and would never have been made if it wasn’t for Tess, would never have been made if she wasn’t so very special in so many different ways.Because of Tess I am the first person, ever, to call Orcas, Orcans. Thinking about Tess gave me the idea and the new name is really her idea. We are Humans and they are Orcans. Its actually a very spooky idea about giving them an identity equal to our own. I can only describe myself about describing Tess now.

Background. SInformation about the Pathology of Killer Whales is very rareand only obtained through studies of stranded Killer Whales (Strandlings), dead whales washed up on shorelines, and captive Killer Whales held in aquariums. I believe that it is very criminal to keep Orcans in captivity. These sentient beings do not exist for our amusement, they exist for our amazement. The diseases of the Orcans are far greater than what these few studies describe. With the development of thenew standard Raverty [et al.] 2014 [109]: “Killer Whale Necropsy and Disease Testing Protocol” scientists will be more thoroughly screening for far more diseases than in the past. Now there are too many false senses of securities among the general public, with the attitude being that if we don’t try to help them, then somebody else surely will. That’swhat we think, but that’s not what is happening. We have totry to help them.

The Emotional Intelligence of Orcans.The biology and physiology of Orcans make us believe that not only do they have emotions, but they potentially have the capacity to have incredibly rich emotional lives. By examining both the physical behavior of Killer Whales and structures in their brains (presence of Spindle Neurons:

Constantine von Economo Neurons: VENs) that we know have to do with emotions, scientists can confidently suggest that Orcans experience emotions at a level similar to that of humans and apes. The relative number of Spindle Neurons inthe Orcan brain is greater, by ratio, than even that of the human brain. It is certainly true that upon observing Orcansboth in the wild and in captivity, that they exhibit a range of emotions from love, hate, empathy, grief, joy, frustration,anger as well as self-awareness. I believe that Orcan behaviorindicates that they are quite capable of thought, decision making and calculating risks. The legends of the Indigenous Peoples of the Haida Nation (Haida Gwaii: Islands of the People) in British Columbia, regard Killer Whales as supernatural beings and spiritual entities. Orcans can sing love songs. This book is their love song for Tess. We love you Tess.
