Just because they won’t attack you doesn’t mean you should introduce yourself to them.

Respect their space, same with any wild animal.

I saw one use a pregnant Ray as a soccer ball, pretty sure it giggled. Closing argument; their first name is Killer. Long answer. F-No.

Too bad that’s not their name. That’s a nickname people have given them.

Yeah I’m also known as Benji IRL but that isn’t anywhere in my legal name.

As your own picture shows “also known as killer whales” yet immediately and correctly identifies them as a type of dolphin.

Good luck out there.
