The attacks by Orcinus orca are fatal because they are an "apex predator"- that is, they are at the top of the food chain. In South America, Pacific Ocean side, they are known to surf ashore to take unaware seals! In the Arctic, they are known to take Polar bears. They are highly effective. They often work together to separate a calf from its mother, sink and drown it, then share it on its' way to the bottom. They ARE whale killers.
