Researchers have discovered a hybrid of a beluga whale and a narwhal. DNA analysis of the whale’s skull confirmed it to be the male offspring of a narwhal mother and a beluga father. The animal was one of three unusual whales caught during a subsistence hunt in 1986 or 1987 in western Greenland’s Disko Bay. The three whales were all uniformly gray, with pectoral fins shaped like belugas’ and tails shaped like narwhals’. DNA Confirms a Weird Greenland Whale Was a Narwhal-Beluga Hybrid
