The beluga whale uses its melon, the round organ that sits atop its skull, for echolocation. 🔊 The melon changes shape as the whale produces high frequency clicking sounds; directing those sounds into the water. Simply put, the sounds bounce off objects as an echo allowing the beluga to navigate their surroundings and find food (like the delicious squid here!). We invite you to ‘make noise’ with your own #ArcticSplash fundraising effort! https://bit.ly/3swTD9T | Mystic Aquarium

99K views · 1.3K reactions | Beluga #whales have a distinctive protuberance at the front of their heads called a melon — this compartment houses their echolocation organ. A beluga’s melon is malleable, meaning its shape is changed during the emission of sounds. They are even able to change the shape of their head by blowing air around their sinuses to focus the emitted sounds!  | Science Channel | Facebook
