We have only observed False Killer whales in the bay every few years, when they do come however we generally get a good look at them as they tend to be in quite large pods (50-100 animals).

False killers are a tooth whale and hunt feed and behave very similar to dolphins, in fact they are a large dolphin. The pods observed  in the bay usually have many young, the adult catching fish and then brining them over to calves to play with and eventually eat.

False Killer whales seem to feed as they move about, they seem to have healthy appetites and would out fish certain areas if they were permanent residents.
