Mothers will do this to allow the calf to breathe (the killer whales are trying to drown the calf) and to keep the killer whales from ramming and biting the calf. This mother eventually lost the battle and the killer whales killed and ate the calf. Markings on the skin of both the mother and calf matched with one of the pairs of grey whales I saw migrating past Big Sur 22 hours earlier. Taken aboard a Fast Raft Ocean Safari.
