*** About Orcas

***: Orcas, or killer whales, are highly social marine mammals known for their striking black-and-white coloring and impressive dorsal fins. As apex predators, they play a critical role in maintaining the health of marine ecosystems. They inhabit diverse marine environments from the polar regions to tropical seas, though they are most frequently found in colder waters such as those off the coast of Seattle, Washington. Orcas are notably intelligent, known for complex behaviors such as cooperative hunting and intricate communication. Each group, or pod, often has distinct vocal behaviors and hunting techniques passed across generations, showing a rich, cultural complexity.
