Beluga Whale

A beluga whale is a medium-sized, white marine mammal found primarily in Arctic and sub-Arctic waters. Known for its distinctive, rounded head and lack of a dorsal fin, the beluga is highly adaptable to cold environments. It has a flexible neck, allowing it to move its head freely, and is highly social, often forming large pods. Belugas communicate using a variety of sounds, earning them the nickname "canaries of the sea." They feed mainly on fish and invertebrates and play an important role in their Arctic ecosystems. Belugas are also valued for their intelligence and unique appearances.
