An Orca (killer whale) will hunt and eat Dolphin.
Killer whales. Killer whales are the oceans most apex predators. They have been seen preying on whales including the blue whale.The killer whale itself is actually not a whale it is a dolphin. The reason it is called a killer whale is because researchers and whalers saw the dolphin killing whales so they called it the killer of whales which has been over time shortened to killer whale. :)
No blue whales do not hunt dolphins. Blue whales are filter feeders and don't have any teeth to take down a species of dolphin. But it is probably the other way round because killer whales the largest member of the oceanic dolphin family delphinidae have been known to try and kill blue whales. Hence the name killer whale they kill whales
The killer whale is a dolphin, and will eat smaller species.
Well, kind of. A killer whale is a kind of dolphin. And the killer whale (also known as an orca) may eat a dolphin sometimes. It may also eat a small whale. They got their nickname from their big diet.
Well, the answer is yes. The Orca (Orcinus orca) is the largest member of the Delphinadae family. The Killer Whale's favorite food is the tongue of the Blue Whale. This is why the name killer whale was once "whale killer".
killer whales eat fish where as blue whales eat mostly krill.
Killer whales are the largest type of dolphin. As the killer whale is the largest type of dolphin and some killer whales eat dolphins and other marine mammals the killer whale would win against any other type of dolphin. thats true but it depends on one thing if the dolphins alone dolphins do attack sharks but in groups so if the dolphin was alone yes the killer whale would win but in the froup i got to give it to the dolphins
Killer whales will normally eat fish such as cod or they may eat sea otter they also attack other whales but the killer whale is not a whale it is a dolphin
There is one species of dolphin that hunts whales and that is a killer whale. In case you did not know killer whales are actually a species of oceanic dolphin in the family delphinidae. The reason we call it a killer whale is because it has been seen killing whales the name killer whale was originally killer of whales but over time has been shortened to killer whale. Killer whales will hunt down whale calves and have even been known trying to prey on blue whales ! :)
