My personal opinion is that the first orcs were elves, but later on, when Morgoh needed more orcs, he crossed them with men to get more soldiers.

That could also cause that Orcs can be alot older than most of the normal men, as you can see on Bolgs example. He was he son of Azog, who was killed many years before the battle of the five armies started.
