1. I saw that earlier & it is incredible...

But, I couldn't help thinking that those swimmers, especially that woman that hovered around her for nearly the entire birth, had no real business being there and should not have been constantly hovering over her--at least not that closely. Dolphins have only a short amount of time to get their young up to the surface after birth to take their first breath, after all.

That said it is an amazing bit of video.
