intelligent animals with strong family ties, ingenious hunting methods and
sophisticated communication skills, killer whales -- known as orcas - are one of the

NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EXPLORER: TOOTHED TITANS
At first glance, the frozen Arctic seems to be a place of desolation. But here amidst
the ice floes, mammoth creatures live an active existence, battling with the elements

familiar picture with their characteristic tusks and moustaches. Amazingly, much about
these animals remains a mystery. EXPLORER joins scientists to reveal the secrets of
these toothed titans.
