Remembering Tuvaq

This morning Mattie (Our Friend in Vancouver )told us that Tuvaq the little baby Beluga whale had died just a few days short of his third birthday.The aquarium staff do not know why as he had recently had blood samples taken and was apparently healthy.
When we were in Vancouver in August 2003, Mattie arranged for us to have a special visit with the belugas. As you can see we got very wet but it was a wonderful experience. Tuvaq was the little grey whale and he was just over a year when these photos were taken.

Hi Mary.
It must have been a great experience to "visit" the whale like you did.
