An Orca jumps from the waters of Stephens Passage outside Yankee Cove between Douglas and Admiralty Island. The largest member of the Dolphin family, Orca, or killer whales, live from 50-80 years in the wild, are between 23-32 feet and can weigh over 6 tons. Killerwhales are carnivores; resident Orca pods, those which stay in local waters, feed mainly on fish while transient pods seem to target marine mammals.
