But I'm sure you agree Martin it's also VERY convenient from a merchandising point of view to continue this.

Believe the mom was Katina but baby Orca not named yet! Can't wait, mom was there at the time but didn't realise - I get excited when I see the baby hippo at the safari park so I'm going to be ecstatic to see the calf! Still Sir Winston Walrus is my favourite though.

It was a boy weighing 750 lbs and 7 feet long after a one hour labour and is 25 year old Katina's 5th - so rather her than me! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle> The gestation period (pregnancy) is 17 months long for killer whales...

Wow - 7ft long doesn't really register on the 'cute' scale does it? I thought it would be 2-3ft long at the most, shows you what I know about killer whales.

All I can say is if humans were pregnant for 17 months - I would only have one child <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Mind you, a one hour labour doesn't sound too bad...!<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

750lbs and 7ft long does though.. even for an hour <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I think the babies are called Namu!

Orlandobabe,

I remember a few years ago now there had recently been a new arrival and that had been called Namu, so I think you must be right.
