| '''Orca Facts'''
| |
| Despite their name, killer whales are actually a dolphin – the largest species of oceanic dolphin
| |
| The name killer whale derives from their original name ‘whale killers’ given to them by sailors who saw them hunting whales. Over time, the name eventually switched around. The name ‘orca‘ comes from their Latin species name Orcinus orca, where orcinus translates to mean ‘Kingdom of the dead’
| |
| Whilst they can and do eat prey such as finfish and marine mammals, New Zealand orca have become specialised at hunting sharks and rays. They can often be seen up around rocky reefs and in the shallows of beaches while they are hunting
| |
| The average life span of an orca is not too dissimilar to a human, at 50-80 years for females and slightly less for males at 29-60 years.
| |
| Orcas have the second largest brain of any animal in the world
