Orcas do taste good and have a mildly pleasant taste and quite fatty.

The people who've eaten orca or killer whale meat describe the taste as dark and gamey like beef but richer in taste.

Orca and killer whale meat is both fishy and gamey but also is said to have the absence of fishy taste.

Orcas were given the name 'killer whale' by ancient sailors' observations of groups of orcas hunting and preying on larger whale species

The Orca whale is a toothed whale and also the largest member of the oceanic dolphin family.

Orca whales are the only extant species in the genus Orcinus and are recognizable by their black and white patterned body.

The orca whale rarely attacks or harms humans.

Because of their intelligence and social nature, orca whales are unlikely to attack humans out of aggression or hostility.

In fact, there have been numerous instances of orca whales coming to the aid of humans who were in danger, such as when a group of orca whales helped a diver escape from a shark attack.
