The killer whale, known as Tahlequah, has been spotted carrying the body of her dead calf, echoing her display of grief from 2018.

An endangered whale was spotted off Washington carrying her calf’s deceased body over a week after the baby was first documented by researchers. The baby Southern Resident killer whale was confirmed dead Dec. 31, the Center for Whale Research said in a Facebook post.

The research center confirmed J35 has been seen carrying the body of J61 with her. The CWR noted this behavior was seen previously by J35 in 2018 when she carried the body of her previous calf that had died for more than two weeks — 17 days.

Tahlequah captured national attention after losing a baby under tragic circumstances in 2018. Now, researchers believe the mama whale lost another child.

An orca who carried her dead calf for 17 days back in 2018 has faced another heartbreaking loss. Tahlequah, or J35 to researchers, touched the hearts of people around the world when she carried the calf’s corpse with her for more than two weeks in what experts have called a 'deep grieving process'.

The bereaved whale mother who made headlines when she heartbreakingly grieved her dead baby for more than two weeks has given birth to a new calf, scientists said.

A team of researchers observe the new calf and confirm it is female, but they are concerned about its health after it was seen "not looking lively".

An orca that carried her dead baby across 1,000 miles of ocean for more than two weeks has tragically lost another calf. The killer whale, named J35 by researchers studying her, welcomed a daughter into the world shortly before Christmas - called J61.

A mother killer whale who famously pushed the body of her dead newborn for 17 days in 2018 has lost another calf, and researchers say she is again carrying the body.
