Rare Pink Dolphin Pictures

This extremely rare and beautiful “pink dolphin” was spotted and photographed by Capt. Erik Rue of Calcasieu Charter Service on June 24th, 2007 during a charter fishing trip on Calcasieu Lake south of Lake Charles, LA.

An albino dolphin, with reddish eyes and glossy pink skin, the critter was smaller than its companions suggesting that it was immature. These pictures are apparently of the albino traveling with its mother.

Apparently these photos were circulating back in June but they just made their way to us, so we decided to share.

    Hmm, can albino dolphins get sunburned? Either way, they’re awesome looking!

    i think sunburn would be a real concern, since they have to be surface animals. even normal whales (dolphins?) will suffer sunburn if they can’t submerge much.

    N-e-geneticists out there know if albinoism in dolphins are the same alleles as in humans, where it has to be dominent recessive? If so, that is evidence right there that we are all God’s creatures. Same freakin DNA (ingredients), just different in recipe!

    Just a quick note that it is less evidence of us being all God’s creatures but more evidence of us all having a common ancestry , as in the origin of species by natural selection etc. That’s just my opinion of course. On another note I wonder if the reaction of other sea creatures is that of fear since in animals red is a common coding of dangerous or venomous animals. Jelly fish have recently been shown to actively avoid any red objects they may be in the vicinity of.

    Three of us had the pleasure of sighting the mature “Pinky” on Tuesday, September 22, 2009. The sighting was in the same area where one of our party observed “Pinky” in 2007. We spent about 20 minutes attempting to get decent photos, but using a small digital camera was quite a challenge. Makes no difference we know what we saw.

    a straight guy from the Middle East who didn’t know I was gay tried to hold my hand in a redneck neighborhood as a sign of friendship. I consciously tried not to come across as homophobic (just as was suggested by a poster that Nadal might have done). It might seem ironic that I as a gay guy was trying not to seem homophobic toward a straight guy, but often the person’s actual sexual orientation is irrelevant.

    As the technology developed so quickly, many manufacturers take this advantage to make duplications of other famous brands, Nike is no doubt one of the most famous sports brand in the world, no wonder the more famous Nike is, the more fake Nike shox shoes appears. So how could we tell the differences between genuine one and the fake one?The following three ways will help you became the Nike expert.Texture There is no doubt that the texture of real Nike shoes is different from that of fake ones, and this is also one of the key factors that helps you identify the Nike shoes. It is known to all, except for the Nike brand advertising and development costs, the materials used in shoes itself is indeed expensive which fake shoes will definitely not imitate. Usually, fake shoes developers will recruited lower grade textures according to the real shoes materials and properties to act as their imitation materials.1, upper material Nike basketball shoes usually applied with imitation leather which contains a higher fiber density than leather, and the toughness and permeability are even better than leather, at the same time ,it is not easy to deformation. Therefore, a good imitation leather material is much more expensive than the price of leather. Generally, simulation shoes would not use such kind of material, thus, we can check out the gloss, and squeeze, pull or stretch the microfiber PU to feel the flexibility and toughness.2, upper craft Crafts like: hot-cutting, micro-injection and etc applied in the shoes could help us as well. Though same in appearance, fake shoes always use the materials with no flexibility, suppose you wear a Nike air max shoes in cold winter, there are possibilities that your shoes may fracture.3, sole No matter how similar between the real and fake one. There are still differences at the sole of shoes. Sometimes, the real one will add some chemical raw materials, recycled materials or carbon to make shoes more wear-resistant and non-slip. While the fake one will not take this into consideration. Here is a little trick: wearing a pair of real Nike air max shoes walking on the plastic floor, you will hear a very loud reak?sound, while the fake one, under normal circumstances, could absolutely make no such voices.

After scouting through the online world and meeting strategies that were not beneficial, I believed my life was done. Living without the presence of strategies to the problems you’ve resolved by means of your review is a serious case, and the ones that might have negatively damaged my career if I had not come across your blog. Your actual knowledge and kindness in dealing with all things was vital. I am not sure what I would’ve done if I hadn’t come across such a stuff like this. It’s possible to now relish my future.
