Beluga whale trying to bite 2 divers on aquarium, scary visitors

A chilly underwater exhibition between a Beluga whale and divers were caught on film.

The viral images show the scary moment when a Beluga choice tried to bite two divers who were nearby in a tank at Chengdu Haichang Polar Ocean Park in Sichuan, China, on Thursday, August 14, according to a video from viral press.

The choices could be seen rising against a female aquarium worker and bite by her legs as she tried to swim up and away from the sea animal. Moment later, the animal lunged on another male diver who seemed to hold a camera.

The choices seemed successfully biting the male diver’s flips and could be seen holding on to a few moments. The animal tried to bite the male diver’s flips again before they eventually swam, according to the clip.

The two divers managed to swim away from the elections without damage.

As the event developed, aquarium visitors, who looked outside the thought, could be heard screaming and screaming as they reacted to the divers’ attempts to get away.

This is not the first time something similar has happened. In April, a woman who participated in an underwater photography was attacked with two Beluga whales at Stone Forest Ice and Snow World in Yunnan, China, by one of the creatures per viral press.

In that video, the Beluga took the woman’s head in her mouth and removed her wig. The woman managed to get away and swim to the surface safely without injuries, per outlet.

Beluga -whales are known to be social creatures that can show “great curiosity to people”, according to Natural History Museum (NHM). They are also “very intelligent”, according to NHM scientist.

However, there have been several cases where Beluga whales in captivity have seen on video showing aggressive behavior towards people. This may happen if they feel threatened or provoked per study on Research.

Beluga Vallar is listed as “least concern” on IUCN RED LIST of threatened species.
