Ocean Wolves, the Orcas Part I

This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/CREATURES and get on your way to being your best self. Back to the vault to one of the most incredible species we have covered in this podcast the orca! First release in 2019, it is worth a revisit. We will release Part II next Monday. By far this is one of the most incredible species we have covered to date. The Orca (Orcinus orca) is a favorite of many throughout the world, but just how amazing they are will astound you. This will be a 2-part podcast because these animals deserve it. There are so many amazing facts and incredible research, that even two podcasts do not do them justice. In Part I we cover the basics of Orca physiology, but even more incredibly, all the different ecotypes. Behavioral research is showing these animals have developed specific culture to their specific ecotype. In Part II we discuss this in more depth, but enjoy an introduction to a special animal, the Orca. ------------------------------------------------------------- Another thank you to all our Patreon supporters.
