Two of the female orcas (or killer whales) in the field guide to Puget Sound's southern resident community were born before World War I, according to Kenneth Balcomb, the founder and director of the Center for Whale Research there. One of them, J2, presumed 80+ years old, is appropriately named "Granny."
