Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kei te uaua ngā pokapū whakaoranga ki te aro atu ki te nui haere o te tokomaha o ngā kuao raiona moana e mate ana i te matekai, kua rere ki ngā takutai o California mai i te marama o Hanuere. Neke atu i te 1,100 ngā pēpi e mate ana i te matekai, e mate ana hoki i te mate, kua whakaorangia i ngā takutai o California, i ngā wharepaku tūmatanui, i muri i ngā whare, i ngā ara tereina mai i te tīmatanga o te tau. Tata ki te rima ngā wā nui ake te tokomaha i te 250 ngā kōhungahunga e tūmanakohia ana i te wā mātakitaki matua i waenganui i Hānuere me Aperira - ā, kāore he tangata e mōhio he aha. Panuku ki raro mō te ataata. Te raru: Neke atu i te 1,100 ngā kuao raiona moana mate mate kai, kua horoia ki ngā takutai o California i tēnei tau. Waipuke: Ko nga kaiwhakaora e tatari ana kia kite i te 250 anake i te wa ano, na reira ko nga kaitautoko penei i a BrennanSlavik (i te whakaahua) kua awhina ki te whakaora i nga kurii, penei i tenei i Laguna Beach. Rescue: I SeaWorld, i San Diego, kua whakamutua te whakaaturanga raiona moana, ā, e rua ngā puna ā-wāhi kua whakatapua hei noho i ngā pēpi pēnei i tēnei, i te tūmanako ka taea te whakaora. Ehara i te mea ohorere kia rere mai ētahi raiona moana i ia puna i te mea ka wehe atu ngā pēpi i ō rātou whaea, engari e ai ki a Keith A. Matassa, kaiwhakahaere whakahaere i te Pacific Marine Mammal Center, i tīmata rātou ki te whiwhi karanga i te marama o Tihema. Ko tana pokapū, i Laguna Beach, kei te whakahoutia i tēnei wā e 115 ngā kuao raiona moana. I tētahi rā tata nei, i roto i ngā haora e rua, e rima ngā kararehe mamae i tae mai. Kotahi i kawea mai e tētahi pirihimana, tokotoru atu i haere mai me tētahi rōpū whakahaere kararehe, ā, ko te tuarima i karangatia e tētahi tokorua e haere ana i te takutai. Ko te mokopuna whakamutunga, tata ki te kotahi tau te pakeke, he 23 pauna noa iho te taumaha - he tuatoru o te mea e tika ana. He tino mate, kaore he kōwhiringa a te kaimahi, engari me whakamutu. I whakamarama a Matassa ko nga kuao e tika ana kia eke ki te 20 ki te 40 pauna i roto i te rua marama kua eke ki te rua pauna noa iho. 'Kei te haere mai ēnei kararehe i roto i te tino tūmanako. Kei te mutunga o te oranga. Kei roto rātau i te raru... ā, kāore ngā kararehe katoa e ora,' i mea ia. Te whangai: Ka whakaorangia, ka whangai i nga mokopuna e hauora ana kia ora ai te whangai hei awhina i a raatau ki te taumaha...
Neke atu i te 1,100 ngā kuao raiona moana e mate ana i te matekai, e mate mate ana rānei i whakaorangia mai i te marama o Hanuere. I te nuinga o te wā e tūmanako ana ngā pokapū whakaoranga kia kite i te 250 anake i te wā. He tino kino te āhuatanga kua whakamutua e te SeaWorld o California tana whakaaturanga raiona moana. Ko te ātaahua rongonui e rongoā ana i ngā pēpi e 400 i roto i ngā kaukau e rua i hangaia motuhake. Ko te pikinga o te pāmahana moana tētahi take o te pikinga o te tokomaha.
