No it only lets you get one bit of info per species for any 1 dive, and you definately need 2 to get one to trust you and come back to the boat. (annoying thing is then though that you can't click on a wild dolphin anymore without it coming back to the boat and pestering you to swap it for one of your current buddies.
The Orca in the game is a lot smaller than I imagined.... it would have a tough time biting those big Californian seals, I guess it is meant to be a female (I just put the game on to check though and it has a long dorsal fin, which is a male characteristic, could be an error) Or perhaps they just make it smaller so it can be your buddy (can't remember if the wild one in the graveyard was bigger or not) I would argue that it might be a child except it says in the game it is 20 years old.
Wiki says males are 6-8 metres long but mine must only be 4 metres at best.... ahh the guide in the game says 9m long.
Mine is called Hectoro by the way after a character in a series of books by Louis de Berniere.... I also have a beluga called Fenchurch (character from Douglas Adams' So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish) and my favourite is the little Commerson's dolphin called Colin (from the little Robot in the book Mostly Harmless)
I am just watching a TV program now with killer whales in the Shetland Islands (North of Scotland)
