Other whales, sharks (including great whites), rays, seals, sea lions, otters, porpoises, dolphins, fish... depending on the pod, where they're at, what's available, transient vs resident pod. They kill pretty much everything except people.

They have been known to try (Scott, in Antarctica, I think?) and who knows? Orca poop don't talk.
We watched a couple orcas take out a grey whale off Point Hope, from the boat, about 50 yards away. Felt kinda sorry for the grey, but that's the way Nature rolls. We didn't feel the need to dive in and try to rescue it..... . A couple times we saw greys right up on the beach, partly out of the water, and Orcas or Orca farther out.
IIRC, they have even taken swimming deer and maybe moose in SE Alaska.

Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.
Certainly not news on the West coast. One of the biggest threats to juvenile gray whales on their journey N to AK after leaving the lagoons in Mexico.

Not sure if anyone knows or cares, but they are the largest member of the dolphin family and are not actually whales. The sailors used to call them whale killers because they were observed doing such.
This morning was watching a nature show about Killer Whales. It showed them killing Great White sharks with ease. It also showed how they hunt and kill stingrays with out getting hit by their poisonous barbs. Dang things are smart. Impressive animal.

According to the guide on a whale watching tour out of Victoria, there are two species of Orca. One feeds on salmon, the other feeds on seals...and anything else it can get hold of.
