Beluga whales are the ocean’s cleverest creatures, but they aren’t above a spot of fun

With their white, plastic-smooth skin and bulbous foreheads, Beluga whales certainly look extraordinary. And, as these pictures show, their behaviour is just as compelling.

This one enjoys nothing more than blowing bubbles. First, it puffs out a huge gust of air from its blow-hole to make a doughnut-shaped ring, then it rolls underneath the bubble, kisses it with the tip of its nose and glides over it. It’s like an elegant underwater dance.
