To the first baby giant manta ray born in captivity.
The video shows her coming into the world rolled up like a tube (in case you were wondering how that came out of her momma).
The other notable information about the poor mom is that she was pregnant for over a year: 374 days.
The baby ray, according to the aquarium at which she was born, is 6 feet wide. (It's a darn good thing she was rolled up!) But considering that the largest of known mantas is 25 feet wide, 6 feet is just a pup.
