The orca

In the deep, cold waters of the Atlantic, the orca, a majestic ocean predator, plays an essential role in the fragile balance of marine ecosystems. A veritable regulator of fish populations and other marine species, it watches over the food chain with formidable precision. But today, this giant of the seas is in danger. Increasing ocean pollution, the degradation of its natural habitat, underwater noise and the rarefaction of its prey are seriously threatening its survival. With fewer than fifty individuals recorded in the Bay of Biscay, the future of the orca in this region appears more uncertain than ever. 

Faced with this environmental challenge, the Ross'Wild fund is providing financial support for targeted preservation actions, in partnership with the Arcachon-based association One Ocean, to reinforce initiatives to raise awareness, research and protect the orca.
