5 Interesting Facts About Beluga Whales!

  • Beluga whales are sometimes called the 'canaries of the sea' because they're incredibly vocal - they click, whistle, chirp and squeal, and you can actually hear them through the hull of a boat!
  • Unlike most whales, belugas can move their heads up, down and side to side - they're one of the only whales that can nod and look in different directions.
  • Belugas are born grey or brownish - they gradually turn white as they grow up, usually becoming fully white by the time they're 5 to 10 years old.
  • They have a flexible, fatty forehead called a melon, which they use to focus their echolocation sounds - and they can actually change its shape by blowing air around their sinuses!
  • Beluga whales are incredibly social and live in groups called pods. They're known to be playful and have even been observed mimicking human speech patterns.
