A beluga whale's skin feels smooth and rubbery to the touch. It is thick and lacks fur, which helps them maintain body temperature in cold waters. The skin is also quite oily, providing a slick surface that reduces drag while swimming. Overall, the texture is unique and quite different from that of terrestrial mammals.

What are differences between beluga whales and kangaroos?
Although Beluga whales and kangaroos are both mammals, there are numerous differences between them.* Beluga whales live in the sea and kangaroos live on land* Kangaroos are marsupials and have pouches, while beluga whales are placental mammals and do not have pouches* Kangaroos can only be found in the southern hemisphere, in Australia (and tree kangaroos are also found in New Guinea) but beluga whales are found in many countries and international waters in Arctic and subarctic regions of the northern hemisphere.* Female kangaroos, like other marsupials, have two vaginas, or what are called paired lateral vaginae. These are for the purpose of transporting the sperm to the womb, but there is a midline pseudovaginal canal for actually giving birth. As well as two vaginas and two uteruses, female marsupials have two fallopian tubes and two cervixes. Beluga whales do not.* Kangaroos have four limbs and a tail. Beluga whales have fins and a tail.* Kangaroos have fur, but beluga whales have skin.
Do beluga whales migrate or hibernate?
Beluga whales stay mostly in Artic waters near Canada, Alaska, Greenland and Russia. But they do migrate a little south, near Quebec, for the winter. Beluga whales do migrate, but not in the winter as mentioned above. Belugas enjoy the icy temperatures of the arctic waters during the winter time. They have a layer of blubber, usually 10-15 cm thick that allowes them to enjoy the water. When the ice starts to break up in the spring and summer time, and new water ways are created, the beluga pods tend to migrate farther south into places like the Saint Laurence river, due to the warmer temperatures. It may sound weird that beluga whales enjoy the cold temperatures of the arctic in the winter and the warmer temperatures of the Saint Laurence river in the summer, but this is true. When a pod of belugas, which can range anywhere from 10 to thousands of belugas in one pod, reaches the warmer waters, their skin addaptes to the temperatures easily. Also, beluga whales are known to reproduce during the spring time. I hope this answer helpeed with your question a little bit :)
