They can grow up to 7 m. • They are carnivorous. • They are the biggest family in dolphinidae. • When there are many killer whales or whales they can be called a school, a pond, or a herd of whales. • The whale does not undertake long migrations but stays in one area.

Octopus • The octopus is a cephalepod with eight quick and flexible tentacles each covered with two rows of poisonous cells. • There are 150 known species of octopus, some reaching huge dimensions, such as the Piovra of Hong Kong that with open tentacles can reach diameters of 10 m. • The common octopus lives among the rocks in fairly shallow waters of the Mediterranean and in the the area from the Canary Islands to the North Sea.
