TFK on Baby Beluga’s : a little whale on the go

In Valencia, Spain a Beluga whale just gave birth to Europe’s first captive beluga birth. The calf weighed about 200 pounds and was about three feet long. The calfs  mother, Yulka is only eight years old and the youngest at the zoo to give birth. What makes this calf so special is there are only 20 baby belugas in aquariums all over the world.Most belugas only live for 35 to 50 years. There white skin helps them blend in to the icy waters of the Arctic ocean. Most people at the zoo have been waiting months to see this calf be born.
