An orca beside an icy fjord

The marine scene shows an orca leaping from the water near a glacier in an Arctic fjord. Its curved dorsal fin and contrasting body pattern make the animal easy to recognize above the surface. The glacier and enclosed coastal waters establish the cold northern environment around it.

Life in fjords and cold ocean waters

Fjords are deep coastal inlets shaped by glaciers, often bordered by steep land. Their waters can support fish and marine mammals because currents carry nutrients through the ecosystem. Orcas live in many oceans around the world, and different groups may specialize in hunting particular kinds of prey.

Natural colors of the orca and icy setting

  • Orca body: glossy black with bright white patches
  • Saddle patch behind the dorsal fin: light gray
  • Ocean water: deep blue, blue-green, or cold gray
  • Glacier ice: white, pale blue, or blue-gray
  • Exposed coastal rock: dark gray, brown, or charcoal
Questions and answers

Questions and answers

Why do orcas leap out of the water?
They may breach while playing, communicating, removing irritation from their skin, or interacting with other members of their group. A single leap does not always reveal one clear reason.
Are orcas whales or dolphins?
Orcas belong to the oceanic dolphin family and are its largest members. They are also classified among the toothed whales.
How do orcas find one another in dark or cloudy water?
They use calls to communicate and echolocation clicks to gather information about objects and animals around them.
