That is one beautiful creature... always looks to be smiling. lol.

[schildpatt]

that fish must be old from the 40s. So the harness was probably for a walkie talkie radio and not for a go pro camera. The fish would radio in " comrade I see ship it go that way"

[wxndyrzr]

Poor whale! Those Russians better respect Mother Nature!

[olgaletkeman]

Today I saw a dog with a collar. I think the dog is a secret American agent...

[marlexisan]

maybe this whale is teaching the Russians how to be more social, friendly and how to smile.

Pacemaker...
Whoops !! Sorry Flipper **

[sherellguijarro]

Awhhh 🤗 He WENT AWOL 😂😂😂 Don’t Send Him Back 🥺

Nuclear powered Beluga works for fish and Vodka

[bjarnenilsen]

On the seals it stands Sankt-Peterburg with Latin letters so it is probably from Sankt-Peterburg in Florida.

[MrHerberttarlek]

I bet we have vodka sensing trained starfish that leap out of the water and onto a face and start eating.

[willykaranikolas]

Whoa look they found my Beluga!!


I mean... *ahem*... a beluga.

[spartaknumerouno]

Probably not a drop of mammalian blood in that whale replica thingy. Did anyone check if it was in fact a remotely controlled apparatus carrying a nuclear payload?

[markw]

Nigeria has a trained black whale that throws rocks.

[yfelwulf]

In Vietnam the US trained Dolphins to attack Divers using a Co2 Syringe after they killed several JEW S Navy Divers while working it ceased. Could be used for Deep photography or Submarine detection the JEW S has used Seal's to plant mines sometimes using them as expendable carriers.

[machobuffalo]

Russian does literally anything:
Everyone: those Russians are up to something...

[diktatorsovesti]

This chip is to control the number of belugas and their swimming area.

[androiduser]

Beluga is a whale? What about Disneys Baluga the bear?

[martusmartus]

Seems the Russian only spell in English now a days and not in Russian which would be "Санкт-Петербургas" the tag has Saint Petersburg written in English.


Probably escaped from St. Petersburg, Florida.


Are people really so stupid now a days?

[anfrac]

What's wrong with the whale wearing a little Slavic fashion

[NotGahruvey]

No one would ever see the torpedo coming if it’s a whale
