Killer whales, or orcas, can be affected by various diseases caused by bacteria, including those from the genus Vibrio. These bacteria can lead to infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals or those exposed to environmental stressors. Additionally, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been implicated in cases of pneumonia in marine mammals. Overall, while bacterial infections can contribute to health issues in killer whales, they are typically part of a broader context of environmental and anthropogenic stressors.
