The story of Riley the Right Whale mimics a true story of Snow Cone and her baby calf. Snow Cone gave birth to a male calf while she was entangled in ropes and nets. FWC removed some of the ropes hindering Snow Cone, but they were not able to free her entirely and she was forced to swim and care for her calf while entangled. Snow Cone and her baby were sighted near Jacksonville in December of 2021 and on January 13, 2022, she was spotted with her calf off the coast of Flagler Beach where they documented the entanglement. She is not doing well as the rope is embedded in her upper jaw and wrapped around her mouth area. No one has seen Snow Cone since October of 2022. The chances of her survival are not good. This is bad news for our beloved North Atlantic Right Whales, who are literally struggling to survive and fighting for their place in our Oceans. Snow Cone is not alone.

Autorenporträt
"Gigi" Viola Mischele Miller is grateful she spent her childhood in St. Augustine, a beautiful city on the coast of Florida. She spent much of her time at her grandmother's beach house in Treasure Beach. A favorite pastime was to watch for whales and dolphins with binoculars from the deck and stargaze at night. This was the beginning of her love affair with whales and dolphins. She invites you to begin your own love affair with right whales and all the wonderful animals living in our oceans. Mischele has loved writing since she was a little girl and likes to write short stories, plays, and poetry. She runs a non-profit organization, Riley the Right Whale Foundation and currently works as a substitute teacher at the local high schools. She is a Flagler College alumna, has taught Language Arts/Reading (6-12th) for 5 years and worked many years as a case manager. When time permits, she enjoys doing stand-up comedy, photography and spending time at the beach, her favorite place to be. She was inspired to write by her stepfather, William Freeman, who is himself a published author of several books.
