Table of Contents Introduction What is a beluga whale? How do beluga whales act? Where did beluga whales come from? The history of beluga whales and humans Beluga whales and conservation Beluga whales and culture Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction The beluga whale, also known as the white whale, is a favorite of many people. It’s intelligent and cute, not unlike a larger dolphin. What really draws a lot of people is its pure white color, which is attractive and attention-getting to humans in the same way a black jaguar or a pink slug is. As a sea creature, the beluga whale is an important part of its environment, and has had an impact on humans. Or, more accurately, humans have had an impact on the beluga whale. Much like puffins, the beluga whale helped humans live in areas that are hard to live in. This wasn’t done without a cost to the beluga whale, however, as you shall soon see.

In 1849, a crew building a railroad through Charlotte, Vermont, dug up strange and beautiful bones in a farmer's field. A local naturalist asked Louis Agassiz to help identify them, and the famous scientist concluded that the bones belonged to a beluga whale. But how could a whale's skeleton have been buried so far from the ocean? The answer--that Lake Champlain had once been an arm of the sea--encouraged radical new thinking about geological time scales and animal evolution. Charlotte's Bonesis a haunting, science-based reconstruction of how Charlotte died 11,000 years ago in a tidal marsh, how the marsh became a field, how Charlotte found a second life as the Vermont state fossil, and what messages her bones whisper to us now about the fragility of life and our changing Earth.
