Qila the Beluga Gave Birth to a Baby Girl

Posted on June 13, 2008 at 7:47 am (PST)

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. Click here to visit the Vancouver Aquarium webpage about the birth.
