The orcas who frequent the Puget Sound are known to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as the Southern Resident community of orcas. The community was listed in November of 2005 as endangered by the Endangered Species Act. The Southern Resident community consists of pods J, K, and L. There are approximately 88 orcas alive and belonging to the Southern Resident community (2009).
