Do whales hunt in packs

Answer 1

2) The Orca, or killer whale, is the largest of the 32 species of dolphin and isn't really a whale at all. While whales eat plankton, Orcas feed on schools of fish, marine mammals, and even an occasional whale. They are "apex" predators and are often referred to as the wolves of the sea because they live and hunt in pods like packs of wolves. They attack their prey from all sides at once.

1) no, they are solitary animals- unless its mating season and if they have young.

they swim along with open mouths sometimes (for plankton) but other times (for seals) they go up in front of them to eat them

Answer 2

No, some may travel in groups, but mostly humpbacks prefer to be alone, or solitary, depending on activity. Breeding grounds brings whales into fighting groups, mother/calf pairs, male/female pairs, and female/several male groupings. Feeding grounds shows whales alone, pairs, three or more, up to 10 feeding cooperatively.
