Caamano
One-Time Donation
Caamano is a longstanding member of large bubble net feeding groups and she is often seen traveling with Smiley, another female. Caamano arrived with her first calf in 2008 and has had calves in many years since. Upon arrival with her first calf, Caamano spent her first week back in the productive waters of northern BC feeding with a bubble net group. For the remainder of the season, she was only seen with her extremely active calf by her side. We believe she initially fed cooperatively with the large group to quickly re-store her depleted fat cells from a long winter of little food and daily nursing of her calf in Hawaii. She was named Caamano because our first sighting of her was in Caamano Sound, and she has been seen as recently as 2023 with another new calf.
