Beluga whale that turned up in Norway wearing a harness marked ‘Equipment St Petersburg’ in 2019 returns to Scandinavia

First discovered in Norway’s far northern region of Finnmark, the whale spent more than three years slowly moving down the top half of the Norwegian coastline, before suddenly speeding up in recent months to cover the second half and on to Sweden.
