"I so wish that I was there," Alisa Schulman-Janiger told NPR, after a day of counting migrating gray whales a little farther north up the coast of California. "The mom is holding the calf up, supporting it so the calf can rest and actually helping it be able to take a breath." "The fact that you can see the blood pool means the calf must have just come out," she said."That isn't something that is seen very often or documented often.
