Hana, a Pacific white-sided dolphin at the Vancouver Aquarium, is 
pregnant. Like most other expectant mothers doctors are following her 
progress to make sure both she and her baby are doing well. Vets at 
the aquarium have given Hana 2 ultrasounds which you can see at:

Hana came to the Vancouver Aquarium with another dolphin, Helen, in 
2005. Both of them had been rescued from fishing nets off the coast 
of Japan. The aquarium has two other Pacific white-sided dolphins, 
Laverne, who was born at Seaworld in Texas, and Spinnaker, the baby's 
father, who was also rescued from fishing nets off the coast of Japan.
