Orcas
Many people think of orcas as the wolves of the sea because they are often known to hunt in packs. However, this is not always true, as some orcas prefer to swim and hunt alone. Whether they enjoy the company of a pod or a solitary life at sea, one thing all orcas have in common is that they are beautiful and inspiring mammals that young readers will want to learn more about. This incisive volume looks at the black and white facts about this hefty predator, from its diet to its behavior.
