Newborn Chinese white dolphin caught on camera learning the ropes

A newborn Chinese white dolphin has been caught on camera swimming alongside adults off the coast of southeast China's Fujian Province. 

The adorable footage shows the pod breaking the waves, with the tiny grey calf copying their every move. 

Less than a month old, it is the first newborn of its kind recorded in Xiamen this year, and wonderful proof that the hard work of marine conservation is paying off. Xiamen's dolphin population is holding steady with at least one newborn every single year.
