Distinctive traits
DL9013 can be recognized by a complex black spot on its right flank, between the head and the crest, as well as a small minor black line under its dorsal crest. It can also be recognized from the left flank, where it has a series of complex holes at the bottom of the bead. In the center of its crest, it also has a complex notch.
Life history
We first met DL9013 in 2010. At the time, he was already immaculately white. Beluga whales change color from gray to white between the ages of 12 and 16. He would therefore have been born before 1998.
DL9052 has been observed among adult and young grays.
The rest of DL9013’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.
