A grieving mother orca near Vancouver Island in Canada has been carrying her dead calf for Seven days, after refusing to leave her baby behind when the rest of her pod left. ( The longest in History, as the last was for two days)
The mother killer whale, named J35 by researchers, gave birth Tuesday in what was initially a hopeful moment. Mother and female calf were seen swimming together that morning near Victoria, British Columbia, according to the Washington state-based Center for Whale Research.
