Since the Boks' win at the Rugby World Cup, everyone in South Africa has been feeling the 'gees' - including the creatures of the sea.

The city of Durban is feeling the 'gees' as the boys in green and gold are in town for the official trophy parade, which takes place today, 8 November. The Webb Ellis Cup will be making its way in and around Durban for one day only.

It seems like Bok fever has hit us all - including an adorable Beluga Whale.

A couple of South Africans are on a boat called the Gemini Craft in the South Pole - and thankfully they took a rugby ball with them. 

The guys on the boat met a Beluga Whale and decided to have a bit of fun by playing catch with it. The intelligent Whale kept bringing it back each time it was tossed.

It made for an incredible moment - and we couldn't be prouder to be South African than right now.
