1 THEN NOW MOBY DOLL ORCA SYMPOSIUM :REFLECTIONS ON CHANGE SATURNA ISLAND MAY 24 26,2013 PHOTO: MILES RITTER Moby Doll s brief life in captivity nearly 50 years ago triggered a series of fascinating events that resulted in profound changes in the relationship between humans and orcinus orca. It s a whale of a tale, and it all began on Saturna Island. 50 YEARS
2 AN ACCIDENTAL INTERNATIONAL MEDIA SUPER-STAR Moby Doll was harpooned at East Point, Saturna Island in July 1964 but the shot was supposed to end with a kill, not a capture. The Vancouver Aquarium wanted a dead killer whale for study and to model for a large sculpture that was to hang in the new aquarium s foyer. The harpooned whale was only injured, however, and Vancouver Aquarium director Dr. Murray Newman quickly decided to lead the wounded orca to Vancouver Harbour for study. Moby Doll thus became the first killer whale to be captured and displayed in public but the orca survived for just under three months. However, during that brief time, Moby Doll became an international media super-star. Life Magazine, Reader s Digest, The Times of London, major television networks as well as many Canadian newspapers, magazines and television stations, sent reporters and correspondents to Vancouver to tell this whale of a tale to world-wide audiences. More importantly, Moby Doll s capture marked the beginning of a world-wide scientific quest to learn more about orcas. And today, because we know so much more about this beautiful, majestic animal, we re well on our way to making sure that orcas continue to thrive in their natural habitats and thrill many of our future generations.
3 MOBY DOLL ORCA SYMPOSIUM:REFLECTIONS ON CHANGE Moby Doll s brief life in captivity nearly 50 years ago triggered a complex and fascinating sequence of events which profoundly changed the relationship between humans and orcinus orca. To acknowledge that past, celebrate the present and ensure its future development two dedicated community groups the Saturna Heritage Committee and the Saturna Island Marine Research & Education Society are hosting this very special event.

4 OUR PRESENTERS + SPECIAL GUESTS 50 YEARS Dr. Murray Newman As a boy in Chicago, he kept tropical fish and from that point forward Dr. Newman s life, the oceans and marine science were permanently woven into a singularly accomplished career. He graduated from the University of Chicago in zoology, served three years in the U.S. Navy during World War II in the South Pacific, returned to his studies at the University of California at Berkeley and came to Vancouver in 1953 for doctoral studies at the University of B.C. It was here on the B.C. west coast that Dr. Newman made his mark. Hired as the founding director of the Vancouver Aquarium in 1955, he held that high-profile post for the next 38 years while building the aquarium into a world-recognized public facility and research organization. In 1995, the Murray A. Newman Award was created in his honour and is given annually in recognition of significant aquatic research and conservation work in British Columbia. It was Dr. Newman who in 1964 commissioned the Moby Doll Expedition and, on the day of the harpooning, he immediately flew to Saturna Island s East Point Lighthouse. He quickly saw the many scientific benefits of bringing the wounded whale to Vancouver for study. During Moby Doll s short life in captivity, Dr. Newman says he became very attached emotionally to the magnificent animal. Dr. Patrick McGeer Well known as both a scientist specializing in neurological research and a long-serving provincial politician, Dr. McGeer was part of the Vancouver Aquarium research team that took part in the Moby Doll capture off Saturna Island s East Point in Much of Dr. McGeer s research has been done at the University of B.C. s School of Medicine and he served as an MLA for several Social Credit provincial governments from 1962 to He also served in cabinet for 10 of those years and his portfolios included education, universities, science, communications and international trade. He graduated with honours in chemistry from UBC in 1948, received his PhD in chemistry from Princeton University in 1951 and his MD from UBC in Dr. Kenneth Balcomb This highly-influential U.S. scientist has been studying the Southern Resident Orcas since the 1970 s. He s Executive Director of the non-profit Whale Research Centre on San Juan Island, he founded the WRC in He s a pioneer in photo-identification of cetaceans and also founded Orca Survey, a study of Pacific Northwest killer whales, in Dr. Lance Barrett-Lennard He s the current head cetologist at Vancouver Aquarium, Adjunct Professor in the Department of Zoology and has been an active collaborator in ongoing studies of behaviour and population of killer whales in B.C. and Alaska since Some of his findings recently served as a basis for the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada s listing of southern resident killer whales as an endangered population. Josef Bauer He was part of the expedition to capture Moby Doll in He spent 3 months camped on Saturna along with Sam Burich (deceased), the sculptor. Michelle Bigg Michelle is the daughter of Michael Bigg (deceased) who was one of the most influential marine scientists during the early years following Moby Doll s capture. One of his breakthroughs was discovering how to identity individual orcas via the unique shape of their huge dagger-shaped dorsal fins. Michelle will be in attendence at the Moby Doll Symposium. Graeme Ellis He has been actively involved in the long-term study of killer whales in the northeast Pacific since 1973, when he started working for the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. Graeme is actively involved in orca population monitoring and studying aspects of their diet, distribution, genetics and contaminant levels. Graeme has co-authored books several books about killer whales with John Ford and Kenneth Balcomb. Dr. John K. Ford He joined Fisheries and Oceans Canada in 2001 as head of the Cetacean Research Program at the Pacific Biological Station in Nanaimo. He is also an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Zoology and the Fisheries Centre at the University of B.C. Dr. Ford s areas of research include the life history, ecology, behaviour and acoustic communications of cetaceans especially killer whales. Dr. Kathy Heise She began her involvement in cetacean research over 25 years ago as a lightkeeper, listening for the sounds of killer whales using a permanently-mounted hydrophone. She returned to UBC to study the ecology of Pacific whitesided dolphins. Kathy is interested in the resident dolphins in the Strait of Georgia, particularly their foraging behaviour and prey choice. She is a Research Associate at the Vancouver Aquarium. Dr. Peter Ross He is the former head of Marine Mammal Toxicology at Fisheries and Oceans Institute of Ocean Sciences at Sidney, B.C. He has active research programs on the effects of persistent environmental contaminants on the health of marine mammals and the sources, movement and fate of persistent environmental contaminants in marine food chains. An Adjunct Professor at Simon Fraser University, Dr. Ross obtained his PhD from the Faculty of Veterinary Sciences at Utrecht University in The Netherlands.
