Whale Pods
Whale PodsIn 2001 Canada listed the Southern Resident Community of orcas as "endangered."
Orcas are highly efficient ocean predators--top of the food chain. Some cooperate when hunting, just like wolves. The fact that most killer whales feed on other marine mammals, including the large baleen whales, have earned them their common name. Pacific Northwest resident pods of killer whales, however, rely primarily upon the once-abundant salmon runs for food.
Worldwide, there is no available count of how many wild orcas exist. |
