About this listen

In this episode of Curry Café, hosts Ray Gary and Rick McNamer talk with Joann VanHorn about whale watching and ocean conservation. VanHorn describes her work as a citizen scientist with Oregon’s State Parks Whale Watch Program, how volunteers help the public spot and understand whales, and memorable close encounters. The conversation also covers climate change, pollution, entanglement, and ongoing whaling, plus insights on orcas, whale barnacles, and rare blue whale sightings.

We encourage anyone with differing views to participate in future Curry Café discussions. If you would like to join the panel, email contact@kciw.org or call 541-661-4098.
