“행복해요”…中 수족관서 10년 만에 해방된 벨루가의 함박미소<br /><br />Two former captive beluga whales have been released into the world's first open water sanctuary in Iceland.<br />Thanks to a UK charity, the pair of 12-year-old whales, successfully made the epic journey from Shanghai to reach their new home... after spending years as show animals in a Chinese aquarium.<br />The Sea Life Trust charity says the new home for the two belugas named Little Grey and Little White is a much "larger, natural environment".<br />"I mean you've seen the world's first beluga whales move into their open water sea sanctuary. I don't think it gets better than that. I mean months of preparation, planning, practice came together this morning."<br />The two are currently in an "acclimatization space" within the sanctuary, that will allow them to adjust to their new home.<br />
