A CLOSE CALL

Who’s that friend who is always losing their phone? Or are you that friend? I think most of us have felt the panic of either not knowing where we left it - or worse, dropping it. Your heart sinks - & sometimes so does the phone, but that’s okay - He’s got the whole world in his hands - or mouth.

Ina was a nursing student in Norway. She & a friend decided to knock off after a long semester of studying & take a day ride out on a boat. As they were snapping pics, as a lot of 20-somethings do, the boat hit a wave & Ina lost her phone - in the ocean. You’d think that would be the end of that - but she hadn’t counted on Hval, a Beluga whale who’s been swimming in the bay around Hammerfest since escaping a Russian naval station.

Hval saw the phone drop - dove down & nabbed it in his teeth - & delivered it back to Ina. See the interaction between them HERE.
