      Heya!

      I know of a very large orca pod near Vancouver Island, Canada: it contains 41 killer whales and is called the L-pod (I take it L stands for large!). There are also pods around with 20 or so orcas!
      Each of the pods have their own characteristic dialects and sounds – its really quite amazing!
