The beluga whale's melon is a soft, flexible structure made of lipids located on its forehead that enables the whale to produce clicking and whistling sounds for communication and echolocation, allowing it to navigate, hunt, and create an audible image of its prey by bouncing sound waves off objects.

Squishy Heads Of The Ocean! | Beluga WhaleHinzugefügt:
This friendly creature is a beluga whale, and they are not only incredibly beautiful creatures, but also very intelligent. [music] These Arctic whales are known for the distinctive rounded structure on the top of their forehead, called melon. It's made up of lipids and is incredibly flexible, making it very squishy to the touch. The melon not only makes them cute, but it also serves as an important tool [music] for the whale.
It helps them make thunderous noises, such as clicking and whistling, which they [music] use to communicate and even hunt. While hunting, these echolocation clicks bounce back off their prey [music] and provide an audible view of their target.
