The Orca
INTRODUCTION

They live almost anywhere...Some of the places they like to live according to Seaworld in QLD Australia, Orcaś like to live in oceans and sea surrounding coastal countries. They adapt in any climate, Oraca can live in warm waters near the equator or the icy water of the north and south pole regions. They prefer deeper water but can be found in shallow bays and estuaries, and in inland seas.
What does the Killer Whale look like ?
Orca are a very beautiful mammal they are known for their long dorsal fin, black and white colouring. Behind their dorsal fin is a grey patch called a ¨saddle¨ - because it looks like a riding saddle

New Zealand is home to an estimated 150–200 individuals Orcas, which travel long distances throughout the country’s coastal waters.
Interest Fact : DID YOU KNOW ? Pods of orca are known to venture into Wellington Harbour throughout spring and summer looking for a unique food source (orcas in other parts of the world aren't known to do this), but it is rare for them to stick around.
Offspring
A female killer will give birth every 3-10 weeks to one offspring at a time, a baby Orca is called a calf. They are able 8.5 feet long.The size and weight of an adult Orca? They weight up to 6 tonnes and grow up to 23-32 feet in length , that is almost as long as a school bus.
The largest Orca ever record was 32 Feet long according to Seaworld in QLD (Australia)
Conclusion
Orcas (KILLER WHALE) are amazing animals, they have interesting ways of life.But sadly these animals are endangered. They are at risk extinction, thank goodness many governments worldwide have come to the rescue. They have banned whaling, which is the main reason of population decline. Some nation have even banned killing Orcas.
Another killer of our orcas and marine life is our household trash which ends up in their environment, and is polluting their food chain. We need to recycle and reduce our amount of waste that is killing our amazing marine life, and our beautiful clean oceans and waterways.
