The most complex marine species on the planet, our counterparts in the sea are the orca, the ruler of the ocean. They are the most widely distributed marine mammal in the world, and their realm extends from the Arctic to the Antarctic. Orcas, also called killer whales, number fewer than ... 100,000 worldwide, and learning more about them is a global endeavor for Jean-Michel Cousteau and his team of explorers, who travel to both the northern and southern hemispheres as they seek out killer whales in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

1. Sea Ghosts (Beluga Whales)
  April 7, 2009
There are places on this planet where it is a marvel that anything survives. But in the cold Arctic waters of the far north, the sea is alive with sound. The canaries of the sea are singing. They are beluga whales, named from the Russian word for "white ones." Belugaas are an evolutionary surprise -- a warm-blooded mammal in a numbingly cold sea. Resembling curious ghosts, these intelligent mammals use one of the most complex sonars of any animal. Their world is now ground zero for climate change.
