TL;DR Summary

A beluga whale suspected to be a spy trained by the Russian navy, nicknamed Hvaldimir, has been spotted off the coast of Sweden. The whale was first discovered in Norway in 2019 wearing a human-made harness and has been slowly moving down the Norwegian coastline. Scientists are puzzled by the whale's current route, which is taking him away from his natural environment, and believe he may be searching for a mate or other beluga whales. Officials have urged locals to avoid contact with the whale to prevent injury. Russian officials have not commented on the speculation that Hvaldimir could be a spy.
