Salish Sea

The Salish Sea is an important ecosystem with biodiversity of habitats and animals that rely on them for survival.

Harbour Seal

Harbour seals spend about half their time on land and half their time in water.

Chinook Salmon

Chinook salmon may spend between 1 to 8 years in the ocean before returning to their natal streams to spawn.

Puget Sound King Crab

Puget Sound king crab larvae will spend about 2 months drifting as plankton before settling to the bottom, where they will spend the remainder of their lives.

Giant Pacific Octopus

Octopus have approximately 200 suction cups on each arm! They use these suckers to taste their food.

River Otter

River otters have large home ranges, between 2-78km, and are constantly on the move within this range.
