Re: Pink dolphin appears in US lake
HaHa I got an email with pictures of this almost two years ago, if this is recent then good to know it's still alive!

Re: Pink dolphin appears in US lake
They must be bored, LOL! here's the article I received.........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. It appears to be an uncanny freak of nature, an albino dolphin, with reddish eyes and glossy pink skin. It is small in comparison to the others it is traveling with and appears to be a youngster traveling with mama. After spotting the beautiful mammal cruising with a pod of four other dolphins, Rue and his guests Randy and Peyton Smith and Greg and Sam Elias of Monroe, LA idled nearby while watching and photographing the unusual sight for more than an hour. Maybe news travels slow to the UK from here, LOL! Last edited by Dantheman62; 03-03-2009 at 10:23 PM. |

Re: Pink dolphin appears in US lake
I think it's a symbol of something if it is going to appear now. It probably doesn't appear often anyway but you know how people like to assign an explanation for everything.

Re: Pink dolphin appears in US lake
That's extraordinarily beautiful !!
For your interest, another "not-too-pink" dolphin species is under threats due to "usual" human activities in Asia. http://www.theage.com.au/travel/pric...0226-8iwg.html |
