'''Orco the Killer Whale''' (previously known as '''Shachee''' in Europe) is a large blue [[wikipedia:Killer whale|killer whale]] who [[Donkey Kong]] encounters in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]''. Its name comes from "Orca", the official name of the Killer whale.

Generally Orco is found simply wandering around aimlessly, Donkey Kong can come up to Orco and grab on to its dorsal fin, Donkey Kong can then ride Orco. Like [[Enguarde the Swordfish]], Orco can smash through underwater barriers, and can also leap out of the water and reach extreme heights. Orco has several smaller killer whales follow behind him, leading some to believe it is female, as this only happens with female whales in real life. While the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' version of ''Donkey Kong Jungle Beat'' specifically referred to it as a "he", this could have been a mistake, similar to how [[Watt]] was erroneously called a male in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''.

-'''Orco''' (known as '''Shachee''' in Japanese and the British [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] version) is a large blue {{wp|killer whale}} and a [[Jungle Buddy]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]''. His name comes from "orca", the official name of "killer whale". Orco is generally found simply wandering around aimlessly. [[Donkey Kong]] can approach Orco and grab on to his dorsal fin to ride him. Like [[Enguarde the Swordfish|Enguarde]], Orco can smash through underwater barriers. He can also leap out of the water and reach heights.

-The ''[[New Play Control!]]'' version specifically refers to Orco as "he", officially identifying him as male. Despite this, Orco has several traits that are more commonly associated with real-world female killer whales. Most notably, Orco's dorsal fin resembles the shorter, more curved one of a female killer whale as opposed to the longer, triangular dorsal fin of a male killer whale. Additionally, several smaller killer whales follow behind Orco, which is a trait shared with real world dolphins. This is a similar case to an aquatic Animal Friend, [[Glimmer]], who is referred to as male despite resembling a female anglerfish.
