This is the moment a friendly grey whale calf approaches a boat asking to be petted by a passenger. Christian Miller was on a ‘Snotbot’ expedition in San Ignacio Lagoon, Mexico, on May 20, when the inquisitive whale got close to the vessel. Moving towards the boat with its mother by her side, the baby giant raised her head above the water.

He then reached out and started petting the whale with both hands, before splashing water on her.
Unperturbed by the incoming boat, the whale's mother let both Mr Miller and one of his colleagues stroke her calf.
