          Orcas are also known as killer whales. The joke is that the prosecutor is trying to get him to call himself a killer.

    I think tom scott did a video where he mentioned that in the original languange it was “whale killer” not killer whale but people tranlated it word for word, losinh the meaning.

      Dolphins and orcas are both porpoises. :)

        No, dolphins and porpoises are separate families. Orcas are with the dolphins. Porpoises are actually closer with other types of whales like belugas and narwhals. At least per the most widely accepted taxonomy.

        All of these are classified as cetaceans though (infraoder, above family) and of course have a common ancestor if you go back far enough.
