Beluga whales relocated from closed Canadian marine park arrive in US

Six beluga whales have been relocated from Marineland of Canada, a closed marine park, to aquariums in the United States. The whales—Sierra, Acadia, Osiris, Lillooet, Bertie Botts, and Frankie—are part of a larger group of 30 belugas needing new homes. They were transported via specialized cold-water containers by truck and plane, with marine mammal veterinarians accompanying them throughout the journey. This marks the first phase of an international relocation effort aimed at ensuring the well-being of the animals following the closure of the Canadian facility.
