These killer-whales or orca-whales "Orcinus orca" are a saw-toothed whales a member of the oceanic-dolphin speciesy, of which they are the mammoth species.

It makes no difference between a dolphin and a whale but for its huge-dimension. Orca whales are called killer-whale by former seafarers' monitoring grouping of orca-whales killing and devouring huge whale-families. The Latine Name "Orcinus" refers to large-bellied pot or belonging to Orcas.

When orca-whales are groups of the marine-dolphin species "Delphinidae" their general dimension is which seperates these black fish from other dolphins in their homoptera. Currently, whether a black fish gains a measurements in excess of thirty ft. in length, it could be inferred by many as a killer-whale, yet the taxonomic system till now grade the orcas as "dolphins."

"Killer-whales" have been part and parcel of the "dolphin-group". As for as these killer-whales are concerned they are classified in to 3 major kinds of "killer-whales" in the North-Atlantic-Ocean: Native, Temporary, and alongshore. Factually, these killer-whales have been the hugest group of the "Delphinidae", or black fish species.

We have been often questioned why these biggest dolphins are known as "killer-whales?". Scientifically, "killerwhales" have been the hugest category of the "dolphin-group.". That's why, undoubtedly, these whales are "killer-dolphins." Yet on account of their huge-size, the term "killer-whale” has been mentioned as their title.
