Distinctive traits
DL2694 can be recognized by a W-shaped notch on its left flank at the end of its dorsal crest and by another small notch on the same side between the middle and the beginning of its crest. There are also black markings on the dorsal crest. The same W-shaped notch can also be seen on the right flank, along with a small notch between the middle and beginning of the dorsal crest.
Life history
Our first encounter with DL2694 dates back to 2007. At the time, it was white. Beluga whales change color from gray to white between the ages of 12 and 16. It was therefore born before 1995.
DL2694 swims in groups composed of adults, young grays and calves.
The rest of DL2694’s story will tell us a lot about the evolution of the beluga’s social life. By understanding how belugas live, we can better protect them.
