The once-in-a-lifetime sighting was captured on video.
It was a stunning sighting to see… passengers on a boat witnessed a whale giving birth off the coast Dana Point.People on the boat spotted something orange and red in the water, when the boat moved a bit closer they noticed a newborn calf come up to the surface.
"For a minute, many of us 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," said Matt Stumpf, Capt. Dave’s drone operator.According to experts, gray whales migrate annually along the U.S. west coast, swimming 10,000 to 12,000 miles round-trip, the longest migrations of any mammal. Newborn gray whale calves are about 15 feet long and will gain over 50 pounds a day feeding on their mother’s milk.
