• The gyrencephaly index (GI) for humans
is 2.2; for bottlenose dolphins is 5.62,
and for orcas is 5.70. This makes orcas
the most gyrified brain in the world.
Orcas have a highly developed set of
brain lobes called paralimbic system,
compared to land mammals, including
humans.

• Unlike sharks, killer whales don't

typically attack humans unless they feel
threatened, and in no known case has a

are considered amiable animals, at least
as far as we know and have experienced
them to be.
