Hvaldimir, the Beluga Whale – Appears in the Port of Gothenburg

The first time he was seen was in 2019 outside the city of Hammerfest in northern Norway, with a harness attached to him that read “Equipment St. Petersburg”. Which led to speculation that he had been trained as a Russian spy. And so he was named Hvaldimir, an amalgamation of the Norwegian word for whale and Vladimir Putin.
