Even though they live in the ocean, orcas are mammals. All mammals are warm blooded, which means that they regulate their own body temperature instead of relying on the sun or other external objects to do it.

What else can I help you with?

Do orcas migerate?

Well, yes. Orcas have a thick layer of blubber (body fat) under their skin. But, when it is time to have young, orcas will have to leave their summer, cold water feeding grounds to go to warmer waters, where they live off of their blubber, and have young, because little ones have blubber layers that are too thin to survive in the Arctic or Antarctic feeding grounds.
