Ruffles (J-1) has been missing since December of 2010. Some have already declared him dead, but I refuse to believe it. Please come home, Ruffles!!

  • I really hope he shows up somewhere alive... maybe he just went far away to some females making Ruffles juniors... ;)

    Nice work! So beautiful.

  • @RavenOrca Thank you! I hope you're right. I've known him so long, I can't imagine him being gone....

  • I was just in the San Juans yesterday and didnt see him, he now watches over his pod, I miss him though, even if I never saw him.

  • I hate to be a downer but its highly unlikely that he would leave his Mother for any other reason than to die. They also knew his health was failing this past summer...its very sad :(. He will be missed by so many!....I enjoyed your video.

  • It could be that Ruffles has lost her orientation.wWth all the pollution in the sea it's easy that even a killer whale lost the way to go home. I hope that she come back

  • I don't believe dear Ruffles is dead either.

    Maybe there is a reason, like a salmon shortage, for him to feed elsewhere.

    Invite him into your dreams, our whale master of unconditional love.

  • Ruffles was for me when I was little w the J pod signature whale I remember seeing him first in free willy sequences assumed it was willys mom. One time when we went whale watching I saw him and I shouted J POD!!! Thats willy`s mom! Oh god i love ruffles I miss him.

  • Beautiful video....i really hope that he is okay and shows up soon...

  • i couldnt believe this when i found out either:( i hope hes alright :(

  • I really hope he's just "playing hide and seek" and will come back soon...

  • It is precious and so special because it won't last,the universe is precious because it's ephemeral,and all the creatures are passing thought...

    nice pictures

  • I hope Ruffles comes home such a beautiful male orca lovely video great work..
