false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens)
They are characterized by their long, slender, black bodies, lack of a proboscis, and round heads. In the wild, they swim with bottlenose dolphins in groups of dozens to hundreds of animals. The "Marine Live" performance at the Big Ocean is a powerful show.
