Weaponized whales?

Obviously tamed and trained for something...

We did the dipshyt thing with dolphins way back in the day...

No mention of PITA's or Greenpiecers being all up in Russian butts...

Hit the snooze button!

Maybe "Beluga Lives Matter!" would have been a catchier thread title...

Oh well...

Nuke the Russian whales!

Didn't the US train dolphins to kill swimmers with compressed air darts?

Or attach mines to ship hulls...which didn't work well.

Well, considering that Beluga Whales are mammals and therefore deliver live births as opposed to roe (fish eggs), I'm not too sure.  But even Beluga Sturgeons (which produce Beluga caviar) are a member of the Sturgeon family and I have heard those fish do not taste very good.  Just saying.

Huh, well, OK...then either the Norwegian's are starving to death and will eat anything...or some folks will just eat anything.  Like sea-kill to our road-kill...
