Comments On The Proposed Critical Habitat For Southern Resident Killer Whales

Comments by Dr. David Bain

Our mission is to provide support to animals in distress wherever they may be.

We support scientific research efforts involving animals anywhere in the world.

"GRR" provides care to animals in distress utilizing a rapid response team of qualified professionals with expertise in the care and transport of wildlife. This team has access to the necessary equipment and resources to truly make a difference in a crisis situation where in the past there may have been no options for an animal’s survival.

"Global Research and Rescue" desires to enhance the public’s understanding of the wildlife with which we share this planet by communicating and disseminating our knowledge of distressed marine and terrestrial animals throughout the globe.

Global Research and Rescue is underway with its ongoing "Sea-Surface Microlayer" and general health study of the endangered Southern Resident Killer Whale population. Teams from the United States and Canada are involved in this unique project.

We all miss a GREAT FRIEND & COLLEAGUE

Stephen Claussen

1966-2008

Pictured on the far right, Steve Claussen enjoys a celebration with friends and colleagues at Village Island, British Columbia, after the successful 2002 relocation of A73 Springer.

The picture was taken in Johnstone Strait in October 2004. The clip is from a video Jeff Foster took. Stephen had just positioned us in order to get an amazing shot of a group of orcas surrounded by a rainbow. He turned with a smile and said, "...I get photo credit on that one."

Those of us (both human and animal) that have had the privilege of knowing Stephen during his brief life, have been truly blessed by a friend and steward, that has given back more to Life, Friends and the World, than he has taken. He will always be remembered, appreciated and loved.
