For a few moments, the passengers and crew aboard Captain Dave's Dolphin & Whale Watching Safari braced themselves, thinking they were about to witness something horrible. Instead, they experienced what the tour company called "a once in a lifetime" opportunity to watch as a newborn gray whale emerged into the world.
A pregnant gray whale gave birth to off the coast of Dana Point, Calif. The mother, like all gray whales this time of year, is migrating from the Bering and Chukchi Seas near Alaska to the warm water lagoons of Baja California, Mexico.
