The beluga whale is still very friendly to humans. In aquariums, the captive belugas we see are more friendly to humans because they play with humans in a variety of activities, and they also perform specific actions under human instructions. Belugas are more friendly to children because they like children better. Beluga whales living in the ocean are actually very friendly to humans, but most of us can't really see them in the ocean, but we can see from some news about beluga whales rescuing humans, such as beluga whales giving directions to lost ships and so on.
As mentioned above, although belugas are carnivores, they are relatively friendly to humans. The following reasons may be the reasons for this phenomenon:
1. Think of humans as companions or juveniles: Beluga whales are whales, which means they are mammals, and humans are mammals. Researchers have done research and found that belugas may interact with children as their own children. When interacting with adults, it is also possible to regard them as their own kind.
2. Nature of play: In addition, the nature of beluga whales is also one of the reasons why they are friendly to people. Belugas like to play, and they are not only nice to humans, but also to some of the other animals they play with. Belugas also play with plants and even with inanimate animals.
3. Smart: The beluga whale is a relatively smart creature, which can explain their behavior of rescuing humans.
