The orca also known as killer whale can have 48-52 interlocking teeth. The teeth can be 7.2cm in length and 2.5 cm in diameter. A baby orca (or a calf) Grows its first teeth at 2-4 months of age. Killer whales do not chew their food instead they swallow I hole their teeth are for catching their prey and tearing it.
