Blackfish pole
Blackfish at the top of this pole is a killer whale. This human figure at the bottom of the pole with the terrified look on his face was killed by Blackfish at the urging of Blackfish's creator, the brother-in-law of the victim. This photograph was used on the cover of the guidebook "Silent Storytellers of Totem Bight State Historical Park" published by the Alaska Geographic Asspciation in 2009.
