Albino Whale Shark
Category: Research | Date: Aug 29 2008 | By: whalesharks
Check out these pictures of an albino whale shark in the Galapagos islands.
Isn’t that the most amazing sight? I would give my right arm to be the person who took these pictures!
Rumour has it that the Galapagos islands might be a breeding ground for whale sharks. They see a lot of large females there. These pictures of an albino whale shark are incredible. Yet again we are reminded of how mysterious this creature really is!!
Enjoy your weekend.
