==Distribution==

Killer whales are the most widely distributed marine mammals. They are found in all parts of the ocean and in most seas from the Arctic to the Antarctic. In the North Pacific Ocean, killer whales are often sighted from the eastern Bering Sea to the Aleutian Islands; in the waters of southeastern Alaska and the intercoastal waterways of British Columbia and Washington State; along the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California; along the Russian coast in the Bering Sea and the Sea of Okhotsk; and on the eastern side of Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands, and the Sea of Japan. In the North Atlantic Ocean, sightings of killer whales are commonly documented up to the pack ice edge in Norwegian waters and around Iceland. In the South Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, killer whales are frequently sighted along the pack ice of Antarctica, and off the coasts of Patagonia, southern Argentina, and New Zealand.
