Killer whales are the top predator in the world's oceans.
Scientists consider them to be smarter then chimpanzees.
The scientific name of the killer whale is Orcinus Orca.
"Orca Orcinus " is derived from the name orcus , one of roman gods of the netherworld who punished evildoers- a fitting name for ocean's most fearsome predator.
Killer whale is not a fish. It's is a marine mammal. However, it is not a whale .
It is in fact a dolphin in & the largest dolphin to boot.
