TL;DR Summary

A Beluga whale, nicknamed "Hvaldimir" and previously speculated to be a Russian spy, has been spotted off the coast of Sweden after spending over three years moving down the Norwegian coastline. Marine biologists believe the whale may be searching for a mate or other Beluga whales, as it has not encountered any since arriving in Norway in 2019. Concerns have been raised about the whale's ability to find food in Sweden, as it has already experienced some weight loss. Beluga whales typically inhabit the icy waters around Greenland, northern Norway, and Russia.
