Orcas, or killer whales, have a gestation period of about 15 to 18 months. The exact duration can vary depending on the individual and environmental factors. After this period, a female typically gives birth to a single calf, although twins can occur in rare cases. The calf stays with its mother for several years, often up to a decade or more.

What are orcas predeters?

Orcas have no predators except for occasionally humans. No creature other than humans can kill the orca. The only possible way for a human to kill an orca is for the orca to be shot with a harpoon. Orca's are playful creatures, but when it comes to hunting, they'll kill anything as long as it won't kill them first, and the orca ALWAYS wins unless there is a harpoon.
