What is an "orca"?
The killer whale, also known as the orca, is a large and powerful marine mammal characterized by its distinctive black and white coloration, sharp dorsal fin, and impressive hunting skills, known for its social behavior, intelligence, and adaptability, found in oceans worldwide and known for its apex predator status, often hunting in groups, or pods, and feeding on a variety of prey including fish, squid, and marine mammals.
Example
The orca breached the surface of the ocean in a spectacular display of power and grace, its massive black and white body glistening in the sunlight.
With a mighty splash, the orca slapped its tail against the water, sending waves rippling across the surface.
The orca's haunting cries echoed through the misty fjords, signaling its presence to others of its pod.
