I know its name is Killer Whale...but, according to some taxonomists, they group it into dolphin, the largest dolphin...

I think orcas (killer whales) and also dolphins are fascinating creatures and as such are amoung my favourites. I also love the orangutangs and other great apes. If any of you are Terry pratchett fans you may understand why the orangutang of all of them is possibly my number one.
Note to self: Keep taking those dried green frog pills! Tempus fugit, don't ya think?

Hard to choose....possibly bottlenose or the rare Irrawaddy dolphin.

My favorite animal is the rabbit... i'm partial because I own 15 (i sell the babies for quick $...woot!) they are very intelligent and have a whole bunch of personality. yeah, they're cute, but most ppl don't realize that there is so much more to the common domestic rabbit.... thank God for these long-eared rodents...lol
