a pod

Researchers have asked us to call all baleen whales GROUPS and use the word POD for toothed cetaceans. The reason is baleen whales do not have family structures and their short ties between mother/calf is really the only connections known to researchers to date. Toothed cetaceans, however, have lifelong bonds between females and young. Some pods can have grandmother, moms, aunties, sisters, and young unweaned males all caring for the calves, while the males come and go to mate.

So your answer is GROUP.
