A mass stranding of Pilot Whales on the shore of Cape Cod, 1902. Cetacean stranding is a phenomenon in which cetaceans strand themselves on land, usually on a beach.

Tofino, British Columbia. Tofino is prime whale-watching territory, as grey whales migrate north from the Baja Peninsula to Alaska in March and south again in October. Many companies will take visitors out to the pods that spend summer in nearby Clayoquot Sound, using Zodiacs or a covered aluminum boat. Along with grey and (possibly) humpback whales, you can expect to see otters, bald eagles, harbour seals and sea lions.
