Whats the difference between a killer whale and a false killer whale?
Everything! they are not similar at all. the false killer whale got its name because some stupid scientist thought it was a killer whale whilst researching on orca’s and then later on dicovered that its a completely different species and from then on its been called a false killer whale”, however orca’s (killer whale) and false killer whales fall into the same category, they are known as ‘blackfish’ or ‘dolphins’. Orca being the largest of the dolphin family and false killer whales coming in at 4th. there diets are different aswell orca’s eat fish, sharks, seals, penguins and whales. Where as false killer whales eat fish, some marine mammal on rare occasions and mostly squid. false killer whales are really small compared to orcas and they are plain black and orca’s are black and white.
