For #WorldOrcaDay here are 2 examples of #orca (aka killer whale) headdresses from the Northwest Coast that the dancer could animate with moving parts:
1 Haida - “dancer could roll its eyes or move lower jaw”
Carnegie Museum of Natural History
2 Kwakiutl - “dancer pulled strings to make the pectoral fins, tail flukes & jaw move”
Field Museum
