Wild animal mortality investigation : southern resident killer whale L-112 : final report. : Southern resident killer whale L-112.
The Northern Oregon/Southern Washington Marine Mammal Stranding Network received a report of a stranded female juvenile killer whale (Orcinus orca) at 07:00 on 11 February 2012, 0.9 miles (1.4 km) north of Cranberry Road, Long Beach, Washington (lat 46.41°N, long 124.06°W).
