How Orca Echolocation Works: 1. Clicks Emitted: Orcas produce rapid clicking sounds using an organ called the phonic lips, located near their blowhole. 2. Sound Travels: These clicks travel through water and hit objects. 3. Echo Returns: The sound reflects back to the orca. 4. Melon Focuses Sound: Orcas have a fatty structure in their forehead called the melon, which focuses the outgoing sound waves. 5. Received by Jaw: The returning echoes are received through the lower jaw, which conducts vibr

Catch me if you can…🐋 Orcas (Orcinus orca) hunt by echolocation, a technique that uses sound waves and echoes to identify and locate prey. Once transmitted, these sounds then bounce back from fish and other prey, and give them important information about their next snack, such as size and proximity. Meet the animals striving to survive in our fragile frozen worlds. This is life on thin ice. ❄️ #FrozenPlanet2 Find out where to watch 👉 https://www.bbcearth.com/shows/frozen-planet-2 | BBC Earth

Orcas don’t just hunt with their eyes — they see with sound. Every echolocation click bounces off the salmon in front of them, and each species sends back its own unique echo. Why? Because every salmon has a different swim bladder shape and size — like an acoustic fingerprint. This means an orca can hear whether it’s Chinook, Sockeye, or Coho long before it sees it. They also use: • Depth (some species swim deeper) • Movement patterns • Body size & shape Put together, these clues help orcas choo
