Kandu 7, a male, was captured near Iceland in November 1984 at around age 4 at the time he was captured. Almost immediately after his capture Kandu was bought by Marineland Ontario Canada. While in captivity he fathered (with 2 females) Splash, Neocia, Malik, Nova, Hudson, Algonquin, April, and Athena. In 2009 Athena passed away. Today none of Kandu's offspring have survived. Also recently one of his mates, Nootka, passed away. I never got a chance to see Kandu but he was Splash's daddy and he will always hold a place in my heart and the heart's of hunderds of other orca lovers.
