I cannot believe this!! For most boaters, it’s the thrill of a lifetime to see a whale up close and personal. Judging by this video, it’s just a thrill for some whales to see people, too!

While swimming through Mexico’s San Ignacio Lagoon, a gray whale calf and his mom approached a boat filled with tourists. As the tourists reached over the side to try and touch the whale, the mother lifted her baby out of the water so they could pet him! And the boaters were blown away when they realized they were actually petting not one whale, but two – a mom and her baby!!! OMG!! This just shows how connected we all are, no matter what species!
