A small pod of 8 Type B killer whales (Orcinus nanus) in pack ice near Snow Hill Island Island at 64├© 26.1?S 56├© 42.9?W in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica, Southern Ocean. MORE INFO These animals are also often called killer whales, but this is a misnomer as this is actually the largest member of the dolphin family. The Type B killer whale is a proposed new species called Orcinus nanus, though this is not universally accepted in the scientific community yet. Type B killer whales specialize in hunting pinnipeds, although they have been documented taking penguins. The Antarctic population estimate is 70, 000?80, 000 for all types of killer whales
