Description
Carnivores -- on land and in the sea -- have felt the wrath of mankind throughout history. The beautiful black and white Killer Whale is no exception to this rule. The largest of the porpoise family, the Killer Whale has obtained a bad reputation as willing to eat anything in sight including, sometimes, man himself. Even the whale's name is a reflection of that claim. However, the last three decades have drawn a more accurate picture of the strikingly marked whale. Today, Orcinus orca is found in aquariums throughout the world, where thousands are enthralled by the animal's intelligence and gentleness. Wild Killer Whales eat primarily fish, taking an occasional sea mammal such as a sea lion.
