Summary
A young humpback whale named Skipper, thought lost after a ferry strike last fall, has been spotted alive and thriving in Puget Sound — a major relief for experts who feared for her survival during her tough migration. With a unique dorsal fin notch from her injury, she’s now identifiable and showing strong signs of recovery. As more whales return to northern waters, boaters are reminded of new safety rules: keep 1,000 meters away from killer whales and 200 meters from humpbacks — crucial since humpbacks can’t echolocate and are more vulnerable to collisions.
