These are the incredible snaps of a buff beluga whale showing off his amazing toned beach body.
The muscular whale looks pretty smug as he flexes in the water, displaying an impressive ripped six-pack.
The brawny beluga found himself surrounded by a swarm of fawning females - but he only had eyes for one whale, who was clearly impressed by his show-boating as they cuddled up together.

The amazing pictures were caught on camera by photographer David Merron, at the Cunningham River in Somerset Island, Canada.
David, 39, said: 'It looks like this whale has put in a lot of days at the gym!
'I was really impressed - it gave me inspiration to do some sit-ups that evening!
'I'd been watching whales every day for weeks, and I hadn't notice any of the whales with particularly ripped bods - so I was fairly shocked.
'When you think of a whale, covered in blubber, you don't think of toned abdominals - especially the beluga whales, who spend their lives in the coldest of waters and have blubber 10-15cm thick to keep them warm.
'Whale watching is always a pleasure - there are up to 2,000 congregating at one time in this particular location during July.
'It's a truly unique location, and an experience that only a few people each year have the pleasure of witnessing.'
