2 Introduction I chose the orca because, I like the ocean and I wanted my animal to be a whale. I liked the time I saw the orcas do cool tricks in Chicago, Illinois. It was really cool. I like how they jump up in the air. That is the only time you can see the whole whale. The kind of whale that I picked is very dangerous. You better swim away fast from the orca!
