A new report from a group of more than 30 experts says a population of endangered killer whales off the coast of British Columbia and Washington state is showing no sign of recovery.

There is an “urgent need for more robust actions” to save the southern resident killer whales from extinction, the report says.

The report makes a series of 26 science-based recommendations, including limiting fisheries to help the whale access their main prey, chinook salmon.
