Baby whale beats the odds

A newborn female beluga whale has survived the high-risk period after birth in central China’s Hunan Province, becoming the first to survive more than two months in an artificial feeding environment in China.

The whale was born on September 22 and weighed about 100 kilograms at birth, said Wang Wei, a veterinarian with the Changsha sea world park in Hunan’s capital. The beluga has grown to 1.7 meters long from 1.55 meters.
