Orcas are fascinating mammals. They have their own distinct cultures from pod to pods. Different populations have different hunting techniques, diets, vocalizations, and social traditions, and these behaviors are learned and passed down from one generation to the next. An orca isn’t simply surviving on instinct. Its pod is teaching it how to live.

They incredibly intelligent and deeply social creatures who live within close-knit family pods. In several well-studied populations, females continue contributing to their families for decades after menopause. Their lifetime of knowledge about where to find food, how to navigate their environment, and how to survive difficult conditions can help guide the entire pod. Scientists call this the “grandmother effect.”
