Killer whale's are from the Dolphin Family. Killer whale's are the largest member of the Dolphin Family.
My opinion I think a Killer Whale (Orca, Dutch meaning) should be categorized as a whale but the scientific Animalia category the Killer Whale is, is a dolphin. They are also considered the biggest dolphins. Even is the Killer Whales meals are sometimes dolphins they are a dolphin.
yes a dolphin can kill a killer whale and they do to protect themselves from the whales
A killer whale despite its name is a dolphin. The killer whale is in the family delphinidae a group of oceanic dolphins. You may be wondering why then do we call it a killer whale? The answer is simply because researchers and whalers saw the dolphin killing whales, that is why we call them killer whales because they kill-whales :)
a killer whale is actually a spicies of dolphin NOT a type of whale
The killer whale is surprisingly not a whale that Is what is often misleading about them. The killer whale is actually a species of dolphin in the oceanic dolphin family delphinidae the reason it got its name is because people saw the dolphin hunting and killing whales at first the killer whale was called the killer of whales but then it eventually got shortened to killer whale
An Orca (killer whale) will hunt and eat Dolphin.
The largest dolphin is the Orca, also known as "Killer Whale".
First of all, a Killer Whale is a dolphin. But if you question was rephrased to something like, "Could a Killer Whale out swim any other member of it's species?" then it would be valid.Anyway, it depends on which type of dolphin is trying to out swim the Killer Whale. The Common dolphin is the fastest, and thus could out swim a Killer Whale. When it comes to smaller types of dolphin, they are about evenly matched.
