OSLO • A spy, a faraway visitor or a fugitive on the run? A mysterious Beluga whale, caught wearing a suspicious harness, has ignited the imagination of Norwegians.

The harness had a mount suited for an action camera and the text"Equipment St. Petersburg" printed on the plastic clasps. Moscow has not issued any official reaction but an officer quoted by the media has mocked the idea, arguing that the military would not be stupid enough to"leave their phone number" on an animal trained for clandestine activities.
