Look! The tail!
The first time a dolphin is giving birth in Korea
She's suffering due to a colic
After all the labor pain, the calf is born
The calf must breathe above the water within a minute after birth
The mother pushes the sinking calf up
The first breathe
I'm so happy to see the baby. It's so cute.
Umbilical cord
However, the mother is worried
Waiting for her placenta
If the placenta doesn't come out, it is dangerous for the mother
It came out
Looking at the condition of the placenta, the calf looks healthy
The calf sucks his mother's breast
That's just beautiful
What a wonderful moment
3 days later..
The mother's cry echoes through the water
The calf died due to pneumonia
Even under natural conditions, the survival rate of a calf is low at 30%
She tries her best to push the baby up...
She can't let go of the calf..
Zookeeper: We tried everything to help her, but I guess that wasn't enough..
The calf left the water so early
The mother's cry never stopped..
