On January 7th, the SEA LIFE TRUST and project partner, WDC announced that Europe’s leading allcargo airline, Cargolux will sponsor the flight to help relocate beluga whales, Little Grey and Little White from captivity in China to a sanctuary in Iceland in spring 2019. WDC’s Rob Lott attended the unveiling of the aircraft that will fly the whales to their new home.

Created in partnership with WDC, the SEA LIFE TRUST Beluga Whale Sanctuary is one of the biggest developments in captive whale and dolphin care and protection in decades and the first of its kind to be created for cetaceans.
