Orca whales are also known as killer whales and can be found from both poles to the Equator although they prefer cold, ocean waters. Orcas feed on aquatic mammals including sea lions, seals, fish, squid, seabirds, and even other whales. Orca whales pursue their food in large groups called pods and use echolocation, noise that travels underwater, to locate objects and communicate with one another.
