This is the best news ever! I hope that The Sea Life Trust continue their good work and free all the animals that are in captivity:

''Beluga whales Little Grey and Little White have been freed from captivity in China to swim in the sea for the first time in nearly a decade. The Sea Life Trust rescued the whales after they were taught to perform ticks at Ocean World in Shanghai. For their trip to Iceland, the pair were put in specially-designed slings with custom-made foam matting to cushion their bodies during the complex journey, which involved a lorry, a Boeing 747-400ERF cargo aircraft and a harbour tugboat. The whales are now exploring the waters of Klettsvik Bay off the south coast of Iceland (inset right) to acclimatise before their final release in to the wider sanctuary.''
