Alexandra Bryant Morton is a biologist who settled in Kwikwasut'inuxw Haxwa'mis First Nation territory in British Columbia, Canada to study wild orca (killer whales) in 1984. Morton made her home in Echo Bay - a community without roads, electricity or stores. In 1987, salmon farms moved into the region. At first Morton thought they were a good idea, but within a few years the changes to the archipelago became a concern to the people in the region. Since then, Alexandra Morton has published extensively on the impact of salmon farms on whales and salmon. (Morton dedicated her life to this cause ). Morton’s work was featured on (CBS' 60 Minutes on May 11, 2014 ). ==Early life and education== Alexandra Bryant Hubbard was born on July 13, 1957 in Lakeville, Connecticut. In her memoir, ''Listening to Whales,'' she said of her birthplace, "I can't imagine a more whaleless environment." Her father was an artist and her mother, a writer. Hubbard said that her passion for animals came from the time when she would explore the woods with her brother. In 1977, she started working with psychonaut John C. Lilly as a volunteer in the Human/Dolphin Society. She catalogued 2,000 audio recordings of bottlenose dolphins. She then graduated Magna cum Laude from an arts college called American University with a two year Bachelor of Science diploma.〔() Woodleighhubbard.com〕
