Rare Orca Birth Filmed in Norway Researchers in northern Norway have captured a unique moment: the first-ever clear video of a wild orca giving birth. The team noticed unusually loud vocalizations from the group and soon spotted the newborn calf, which at first appeared motionless. Moments later, it began to swim on its own.
