Awww poor baby he wasn't ready for it to be over 🥰

Beluga : i love these creatures coming to visit me everyday and play something for me

Play more! He waits

Isn't it a "she"?

She’s a girl I think

[@asheronthehoise4813]

why does this sound so ominous

[@michaellam2508]

*Beluga:* I feel so mesmerised right now... can you play an encore, pretty please? 💖

[@brownebonygoddess4469]

The adorable little guy was nodding his head in approval! 😍👏

[@WhileMyGuineaPigGentlyWheeks]

Yes! That was my favorite it, he was feeling the music in his fins 😂❤️

[@RoyalSnowbird]

It seems like it is always the same beluga whale who is interested in the music performances there... Maybe this one should get special training in music. . . Perhaps it has a higher appreciation and level of intelligence to do well and could repeat some 'notes' with its blow hole in time. . . Belugas do imitate sounds. . .

Perché... perché queste magnifiche e nobili creature prigioniere negli acquari....

[@RatchetTheCat]

Perché Juno (La beluga) è stato salvato da bambino e ora non può più essere rilasciato nel mare. Per alcuni animali, non è una nostra scelta di tenerli, NON POSSIAMO PROPRIO liberarli.

Музыка закончилась , люди разошлись и у Белухи недоумение , шикарные млекопитающие.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.

[@melomaniac9]

People who disliked may their soul rest in peace 🙏🙏🙊

[@Stoertebekerxyz]

They dislike because they feel sorry for the poor whale that ekes out its life in its narrow tank to the amusement of the gaping people. The friendly face of the whale is deceptive. All belugas look like this. And of course everyone likes this whale but not the nature of its captivity.

[@rattlerenthusiast]

@@Stoertebekerxyz this whale was a rescue she can’t be released, and the “narrow tank” is actually very big. You’re putting human feelings onto a animal that thinks completely differently than humans.

[@pommiebears]

@@rattlerenthusiastI wouldn’t underestimate the intelligence of our sea mammals. They have shown altruistic intelligence that is beyond what any other mammal is capable of, sometimes including us. But, I agree that some cases cannot be released, and that they actually enjoy human interaction, as fish just aren’t on their level of intelligence. I believe this particular Beluga is called Juno. Loves kids, and music.

[@crinklebutt]

The fact that it has knees makes me more uncomfortable than it should

[@jadams3877]

This poor whale should be relocated to the SeaLife Trust Beluga Whale Sanctuary in Iceland. There are already 2 beluga whales there living freely in a large sea pen and being cared for and there's room for 8 more whales. These amazing creatures aren't ours to exploit for profit. They should be swimming freely in the ocean or at least in a sanctuary where they don't have to swim with people or do stupid tricks to entertain the public. These animals aren't slaves to the human race, but our fellow beings on the planet that deserve respect and their dignity.

[@Breakaway-ic5gj]

If all the whale would get out of SeaLife is a larger pen, would it really care? It's not like the water's any different, it's just more of the same thing

It safer in that tank than in the ocean. Humans are destroying the ocean with toxin waste.

[@estherlorca9062]

The beluga is cute and the musician is very good at his job but empty the tank. Free the animal please, that's not educational for the kids.

[@estherlorca9062]

@Coelophysis I don't see any education in watching the animal swimming in circles the rest of it life and being feed with dead fish . I recommend you to visit dolphin project website, you will learn that most of these animals were taken from their environment.

@@estherlorca9062 Not in junos case, he was rescued

That poor beluga locked in a narrow pool where he can only stupidly swim in circles. His only diversion are the people who gawk at him. The animal was deprived of its dignity. Poor poor beluga.

[@goldieslacks]

Whomever entrapped the whale needs to sit in a cage all day every day while a stranger plays silver bells in their face. That whale wasn't dancing.

[@ianofliverpool7701]

Musicians are well known for needing to be the center of attention so my guess is these musicians do this to get put on KZbin so they can get even more attention.....I know some people will disagree but I know its not all musicians but I recon its atleast 90%.
