If Orcas had thumbs they would be a world power.

There are actually two orca cultures With two distinct languages. There are pods that cruise the shorelines, travel slower and are more peaceful. The other culture lives out in the sea, travels fast and is more aggressive.

There has to be more than just two.

Think about how different pods attack prey and what they prey on.

There are at least 4 different types of Antarctic Orcas.
Distinct ‘genetics’ and ‘races’ - language more than likely different too.

Having hit whales and dolphins with ships, I can pretty much guarantee my posts #23, #38.

My surprise is the scientists couldn’t figure that out. But then I have seen where scientists discredit ocean phenomena expressed by sailors only to proclaim it years later as if they had discovered it.

I remember seeing it in the theater. I also remember the people running the theater telling the theater goers that it was a bad movie when we walked in.😳
