Baby Beluga

Follow a mini blog about a week-old beluga whale calf at the Shedd Aquarium’s Beluga Calf Update. This is all old-hat for the whale mom Mauyak (which means “melting snow” in Eskimo), because this is her 6th calf. I particularly appreciate Cute Overload’s commentary in their post titled My First “PPPBBBBFFFFTTTHH!!!:

Not to mention he’s got room to grow with his foldy side chub.

I believe that “side chub” is the scientific term, derived directly from Foldus sidechubeous.
