It's a Girl!

Qila gave birth to her first calf at 4:28pm Tuesday, June 10, 2008. Watch a video of the birth on our YouTube channel.

This newborn beluga is:

About 1.5 metres long and weighs more than 50 kilograms (at birth)
Slate grey - it will gradually lighten as it matures
Wrinkled for the first few weeks
Adorable

Qila was born at the Aquarium on July 23, 1995, and is now a mom herself.

Her trainers are monitoring her and the newborn calf to give her calf the best chance for survival. Watch a video of Qila's ultrasound on our YouTube channel.

This is Qila's first calf, and like any new mammal mom she is learning how to care for her baby. Some of the first few milestones the veterinary staff is looking for are bonding and nursing.

In preparation for the birth, two of the belugas (Imaq and Kavna) were moved to the Aquarium's research area behind the scenes. The move gives Qila the space she needs to bond and nurse her calf. It also minimizes the distractions to her as she establishes a nursing pattern with her newborn calf.

Aurora, Qila's mom, will stay with her as a companion. Imaq and Kavna will return to join Qila and her calf once the staff are certain that mom and calf are ready to widen their social circle. Imaq is the father of Qila's calf.
