Description
On July 24th 2017, 3-month-old Kyara passed away due to pneumonia.On August 15 2017, 39-year-old Kasatka was euthanized due to rapidly deteriorating health.
Kasatka is Kyara's maternal Grandmother. Under normal circumstances, these two would never have met. Sadly they both have now gone to the same place, but at least they are free.

Aw... what a sad and beautiful tribute to these two orcas. Their lives should have been so different.

Beautiful work. Kasatka was a beautiful animal and a great mother and matriarch.

I hadn't heard about Kasatka being euthanized. I'm sad to hear about her death, but considering the condition she seemed to be in, at least she won't have to suffer any longer.
This is a beautiful tribute to the both of them.

I had mixed feelings hearing about Kasatka being put down: Sad to hear of her death, yet glad to hear she no longer has to suffer any further pain.
Kyara I didn't even know about until long after she passed away too. This picture is very sweet though, and has a sense that they're up in the clouds... the infinite seas.
