Do whales snuggle?

They most certainly do.

Watch as a mama whale snuggles with her baby off the coast of Hawaii. They swim cozily alongside one another and then the baby swims on top of his mom for a piggyback ride.

It was all captured by Justin Edwards of DroneAbove. He filmed the whales using a drone that kept pace with them as they swam. The video, shot earlier this year, was just posted by GoPro.
