Swimming with Orca: My Life with New Zealand's Killer Whales

The inspiring stories of Dr Ingrid Visser's encounters with orca.

Called orca by some and killer whales by others, these mysterious animals have become part of Ingrid’s life. She has got to know many orca by sight and calls them her friends. Her experiences with orca challenge their fearsome reputation: she gets into the water with them, watches them hunt, and communicates in any way she can.

Ingrid is the only orca researcher working in the South Pacific. This book details her fascinating discoveries, as well as telling her own personal story and describing her amazing adventures.
