Orca whales, also known as killer whales, are the largest members of the dolphin family. They are easily recognized by their distinctive black and white coloring. Orcas are found in oceans all over the world, from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and they live in groups called pods, which can consist of up to 40 individuals. These intelligent marine mammals are known for their complex social structures and communication skills. Orcas are apex predators, meaning they have no natural enemies, and they primarily feed on fish, seals, and even other whales. Their hunting techniques can vary greatly depending on their location and the type of prey they target.
