Beluga whales in aquariums are also more intelligent, and can be trained to perform a variety of complex movements.
As mentioned above, the beluga whale is a very intelligent animal, and their IQ is relatively high. Many people think that the white whale can understand human speech. However, belugas living in the ocean generally do not understand human speech. But aquarium belugas may be able to understand human speech as a result of training. However, it must be after a long period of training and contact can be, the trainer needs to repeat many times, the beluga can understand. Moreover, the belugas understand only some simple words, can also be said to be some simple instructions, too complex words belugas do not understand.
