Beluga Birth (Reverse Angle)

It's a girl!

Qila, a beluga, gave birth to her first calf at 4:28 p.m. Tuesday, June 10, 2008.

You're hearing the voice of Dr. Marty Haulena, Aquarium Veterinarian, relaying information of critical first milestones of the successful birth and the first breath of the newborn calf to the animal care.

This newborn beluga is:

1.35 metres long and weighs about 50 kilograms
slate grey -- she will gradually lighten as she matures
wrinkled for the first few weeks
adorable
making history -- she's the first calf in Canada to be born to an aquarium-born beluga.




Qila, a first-time mom, was born at the Aquarium on July 23, 1995.
