Meet the rulers of the waterverse
May 16 – October 19, 2025
Dive deep into the stories and science that surrounds the magnificent apex predator of the oceans.
Orcas have long been feared in Western cultures as “killer whales.” This engaging exhibition traces the evolution of our beliefs about orcas, from fear to admiration and awe. Follow the currents of scientific research, popular culture, and Indigenous beliefs to gain a new appreciation of these sophisticated animals, their complex social structures, stunning intelligence, and the surprising consequences of captivity.
Cette exposition est offerte en anglais et en français.
All primary exhibition texts within the Orcas: Our Shared Future exhibition are presented in English, French, and Braille. These texts are also available for download as BRF files for electronic braille devices and as Word and PDF files for voice-over software.
Tickets to Orcas: Our Shared Future are included with your general admission or Mammoth Pass.
