Passengers on a whale-watching boat off the coast of Dana Point, California, United States (a city near Newport Beach) captured a once-in-a-lifetime sighting: a gray whale giving birth to a calf!
At first, the sighting appeared to be a typical migrating gray whale. As the boat slowly approached the animal, the crew noticed it was behaving sporadically. Passengers and crew saw something orange and red coloured in the water that they thought might have been kelp. Instead, a newborn calf came up to the surface!
For a minute, they thought it may be a shark or predatory event. But no, instead of the end of life, it was the beginning of a new one!
After surfacing, the newborn calf began learning how to swim and bonding with its mother. The female even brought the calf over to the boats as if to show off her offspring and say hello.
Gray whales prefer to give birth in the warm and protected lagoons of Baja California, Mexico. The lagoons offer safety from predators such as orcas, as well as warm water for calves who have not yet built up a thick layer of blubber.
Although some gray whales do give birth in Baja, there are times when calves just won't wait and are born during the migration.
