killer Orca Whales

Orcas are apex predators, at the top of the food chain. No other animals (except for humans) hunt orcas. Killer whales feed on sea birds, squid, octopuses, sea turtles, sharks, rays and fish.

 They also eat most marine mammals, such as seals and dugongs.

The killer whale or orca is a toothed whale belonging to the oceanic dolphin family, of which it is the largest member.

Lifespan: Female: 29 years (In captivity), Male: 17 years (In captivity)
Length: Male: 6 – 8 m, Female: 5 – 7 m.
