Orca whale, also known as "killer whale," is one of the most famous and widely recognized whale species worldwide. The name "killer" actually stems from human history of hunting, when these large and powerful orcas were often seen preying on smaller whales and other marine mammals.
Orca whales have a distinctive appearance with a long, sleek body and a black-colored back that contrasts with a white or yellowish belly. They also have prominent dorsal fins, which can reach a height of over one meter in adult males. Their tail fins are also very large and curved, enabling them to move quickly through the water.
