Found by the fishermen in northern Norway, a cute beluga whale that loves hanging out near the harbour town of Hammerfest. It has the knack of performing tricks with the hope of receiving fishes from the tourists who visit to meet and pet him.
According to the news reports, the whale was formerly trained by the defence arm of a powerful nation as a spy, though it managed to escape from the bondage. That explains why it has the ability to fetch what is thrown at him.
A few days back, Ina Mansika, a native of Hammerfest, visited the waterfront with her friend in order to catch a sight of the whale. As she bent down on the dock to take a closer look, her phone fell into the ocean. The lady, obviously, thought that she lost the phone forever; but, to her sweet surprise, she saw the whale resurface from the waters with the smartphone tucked into his mouth!
That’s the viral story of a phone lost and found, featuring a cute whale as the hero.
For those who are travelling to Norway anytime soon, meeting this beluga could be one of the best things to add more cheer to your trip. Do not forget to do so before he is released into the ocean far away to unite with his own tribe.
