Orcas are called killer whales due to the fact that they are the top predator in the ocean. They are the hunters, not the hunted. They eat almost anything and everything they â¦ can find including other whales.
Killer whales were long considered one species â Orcinus orca, but now it appears that there are several species (or at least, subspecies â researchers are still figuring this out) of orcas. As researchers learn more about orcas, they have proposed separating the whales into different species or subspecies based on genetics, diet, size, vocalizations, location and physical appearance.
