Description: Comparison of size of killer whale (Orcinus orca) and great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). This image assumes an average length of 4.6 metres for a great white shark (males measure 3.4 to 4.0 m (11 to 13 ft), and females measure 4.6 to 4.9 m (15 to 16 ft) on average), and 6.5 metres for a killer whale (males typically range from 6 to 8 metres (20 to 26 ft) and females from 5 to 7 m (16 to 23 ft). Hence, a killer whale is on average 1.4 times the length of a great white shark.
