Qila the Beluga Gave Birth to a Baby Girl

By Alex in Animals & Pets, Video Clips on Jun 11, 2008 at 4:04 pm

Vancouver Aquarium’s Qila the beluga gave birth yesterday, and the aquarium captured the birth on beluga-cam. The adorable baby is a girl, about 1.5 m long and weighs more than 50 kg ( lb) at birth. It’s skin is wrinkly and slate grey in color, but will gradually becomes more smooth and lighter in color as it matures.

No name yet, they’re going to hold a public contest on what to name it later. Hit play or go to Link [YouTube] | Vancouver Aquarium webpage about the birth – Thanks Meighan!

Neat stuff from the NeatoShop:

what age are we living in, when I seriously thought that it was going to be some sort of “miracle of science” surrogate pregnancy for a human girl. (even if only for a few seconds)

Yep, I thought it was a freaky DNA experiment.
Doesn’t “Girl” relate only to a female human child?
