there is one thing you should know about the circle on the beluga's forehead. These spheres are fatty organs that help with the process of echolocation, namely, the process by which animals use echoes as calls to find and identify objects, explains the Mental Floss page. The way it works is by reflecting sound waves into the water. These waves will later bounce and return to the beluga in the form of echoes. This wave has a fantastic speed, which is about 1.6 km per second! With this echolocation system, the beluga can determine the size, shape, speed and distance of objects in the water. This is what helps them in navigation and communication.
