The killer whale is not a whale like many would want to belive. In fact, the orca is actually a dolphin, called a whale for it;s size. The intresting thing about it is, the orca often eats other dolphins, another reason many people guess that this dolphin is a whale.

This is the outline of an orca, outlining each detail. The dorsal fins on killer whales varies for each gender. The male's dorsal fin can stand up to 6 feet tall, while the female's only reaches to 4 foot.

Orcas are beautiful creatures with intresting habits. Many people who admire their features have taken the time to "own" on themselves. It is possible to own an orca that often travels towards land. A device is placed behind the creatures ear that informs the owner, where it is, what its eating, ect. Imagine having your own killer whale!
