Are sperm whales the largest whales?
Killer Whale - Killer whales usually travel in larger groups and they are a lot faster and more agile. Sperm whales also aren't used to groups of animals attacking them because they are generally deep in the sea where they have no predators and there aren't many animals. Also, killer whales have better eye sight because they use it more while sperm whales are usually in pitch black water where they rely completely on echolocation. Calves and small female groups are at risk, male bull sperm whales are not: The bull sperm whale is much bigger than a killer whale. The bull can grow up-to 65ft and way over 60 tons, have over 40 large 't-rex' style teeth on their bottom jaw, and can become incredibly aggressive when threatened. Their massive head act as the perfect battering rams, and their huge tail flukes can decimate a pod of orcas. Hence orcas rarely engage combat with large bulls sperm whales, as there are plenty of other fish in the sea: ie lower risk, higher reward prey items around
