The Royal Alberta Museum is bringing a new exhibit in May that highlights one of the ocean’s most majestic and misunderstood creatures.

The exhibit is intended to reintroduce the public to orcas, who have been viewed as “killer whales” after years of misinformation and film representations.

The exhibition traces the evolution of our beliefs about orcas and hopes to give visitors a new appreciation for their complex social structures.
