Orcas by Max


Orcas are the most powerful predators in the sea their teeth can grow up to four inches long.The orca does not particularly attack humans. They go on shore to catch their prey. They swim in pods up to 30.Female orcas give birth to one baby orca roughly once every 5 years.  Some have been in captivity from 1961. If an orca is injured they will make it better and they help them to not go extinct. They are marine mammals so they don't lay eggs and they feed on seabirds. Orcas can camouflage using their colours. If the black is on the top of the sea predators can’t see orcas and when the white is below the sea predators can’t see it too.
