Resident killer whales actively swim with porpoises and dolphins, unlike Transient killer whales who hunt them for food.
An orca is a species of dolphin. It is in the group Delphinidae a group of oceanic dolphins. The orca is only called a killer whale because it has been seen killing other whales not because it is a whale :)
the orca whale can be endangered but i think it is not endangered
Yes they are the same killer whale is another name for Orca's. :)
Yes, an orca and a killer whale are the same mammal.
An orca is a type of whale, specifically a member of the dolphin family.
Orcas are in fact the largest species of dolphin, also known as the killer whale.
The tanks at Seaworld are actually too small for an Orca but they seem to get by there. On the other hand a Blue whale is much larger than an Orca. In fact they are the largest mammal on the planet. They would need a very, very large tank.
No. Orcas are not a species of whale. In fact an orca is a species of dolphin In a family of oceanic dolphins called delphinidae.The orcas other name killer whale can be misleading as people tend to think that it is a species if whale. The reason we call the orca a killer whale Is because they have been seen hunting whales so people started calling them the killers of whales which over time got shortened down to killer whale.So no you shouldn't call the orca an orca whale as it is not a whale instead just say orca! Hope this helped :)
