What killer insect came to North America from South America?

The Africanized honey bee is the killer insect that came to North America from South America. The "killer bees" in question originate in the cross-breeding of African (Apis mellifera scutellata) honeybees with such European honey bees as the Iberian (A.m. iberiensis) and the Italian (A.m. ligustica). They owe their North American existences to ancestors who moved from deliberate Brazilian introductions in 1950 to opportunistic migrations northward through Latin America and even -- as of 1985 -- into North America.

Do killer whales live in north America?

No, killer whales are marine animals, they live in the sea not on land (North America is land). However, that said, the seas bordering the north American western coast are home to several families of killer wales (Orcas). Actually having considered it a bit more there are perhaps some killer wales IN north America. These would be those whales held in captivity - theme parks/zoos, for people to look at. This, in my opinion, is very cruel to the poor whale and utterly barbaric and I wish people everywhere would ban such practices.
