A beluga whale suspected to be a spy trained by the Russian navy appeared off the coast of Sweden on Sunday, officials tracking the creature’s movement said Monday, reported New York Post.
It is to be noted that the whale had reportedly been discovered wearing a human-made harness in 2019 off the coast of Norway. Further, the creature is believed to have spent over three years slowly moving down the Norwegian coastline. However, recently, it has picked up speed, moving from Norwegian coast to Sweden.
The locals have nicknamed it as Hvaldimir. Hval means whale in Norwegian and the last part after the name of Russian President.
