A Pink Dolphin!!!!
Filed under: Etc.
In Lake Calcasieu, Louisiana, a wonder worthy of Hello Kitty has been discovered!
A pink dolphin!
We shit you not!
The dolphin's "stunningly pink" color is the result of albinism, which is indicated by its red eyes as well as its pink skin. Don't worry, the dolphin is totally healthy. He's just pink!
Charter boat captain Erik Rue spotted and photographed the pink dolphin, saying, "I had never seen anything like it. It's the same color throughout the whole body and it looks like it just came out of a paint booth."
We wonder if the dolphin is a Perez fan?
Regina Asmutis-Silvia, senior biologist with the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society reminds folks to "be careful, as with any dolphins, to respect it - observe from a distance, limit their time watching, don't chase or harass it."
That way everyone can enjoy the fabulous dolphin for as long as he lives!

Don't let Paris Hilton adopt it.

WHERE'S SWEET AND LA DICKA? HAVEN'T SEEN THEM LATELY! LOL

BITCHES!
There are pink river dolphins in the Amazon but those are a different species. This is a bottlenose dolphin which is normally gray in color. About 20 different whale and dolphin species have been documented with some level of albinism. It is unknown as to the specific genetic type of albinism this dolphin has, but it's likely to be able to lead a normal life, assuming it is not harassed by too much attention. Thank you for making this article available to your readers. Cheers, Regina, WDCS, www.whaleadoption.org

Re: taxpayer – right cause you step out your back door and you have 1 right?
dumbass!
And I see he has a little dolphin friend. No bigotry in the dolphin world. They don't judge someone just because they're different. But then they are a very intelligent species.
ITS TRUE ????????????????????????????
that is so FUCKIN AWESOME!
Old news. This pink dolphin has been swimming around the ferry landing in Cameron, Louisiana since 2005 after Hurricane Rita napalmed the town off the map. Lived there and saw it many times.
FUCK HELLO KITTY. THAT IS SOOO LISA FRANK! IT MUST HAVE SWAM OUT OF MY TRAPPER KEEPER FROM THIRD GRADE!
Isn't this the third sign of the apocalypse? "and the pink dolphin shall rise from the lakes of the crawdad" ; )
Not the first.
flipper……….
Re: Absynthetic – lol
it's, it's beautiful :L
Re: smartgirl77 – Can you please explain the theory of releativity to me in detail? Can you please recite The Raven? Can you please name every bone in the body? Can you please produce the balance sheet, income statement and and cost of goods sold statement for GM? I didn't think so. Just because someone has never heard of a pink dolphin doesn't mean they aren't very educated. No one can know everything.
that is 2 cute 4words.loveit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's beautiful!!!
i shall call him pinky and he shall be mine and he shall be my pink
lol! but seriously its one of the most adorable things i've seen!!! i want one
Ahahaha facinating!
Beautiful!!!
Very cool but I hope people just let it live its life rather than try to use it as a spectacle.
WHOA!! Freakin awesome
Hey I live in Lake Charles & I didn't even know this!!!!!! Dolphin have gotten more inland before & it usually doesn't end well………All our lake & waterways are connected to the Gulf of Mexico….so that's how that can happen.
wow beautiful
sure, it must be a Perez fan
HOW CUUUUUTTEEE!!! haha he's all casual, swimming with the normal dolpins…..that is just too adorable!!
Re: smartgirl77 – I don't know what studied in school, but I learned about mitosis and the government and 1984, then political science, then law. That was a dumb comment. Just because you were taught that there were pink dolphins (which is totally random, unless you study zoology, animal behaviour, or possibly go to veterinary school), doesn't mean you're not educated.
Re: blubbershambles – Hahahahah best comment.
so cute!!!!!
AWWWWWWW….
.
HOW CUTE IS THAT!!!
.
i want one sox3 pretty
there are lot's of pink dolphins but this one is the most pink the other ones are more like "mother-of-pearl" people need to get this straight
so cool
I love you pink dolphin.
Why that's the craziest thing I have ever seen! If only those were around when you were growing up! You would have gone crazy, Marci!
It's Lake Charles (The City) and it is the Parish of Calcasieu…. Just a little FYI
Isn't pink a Paris Hilton thing???
Anyways what's more sad is what happened in australia with thousands of dolphins…
Been trawling through the british papers again, have you, Perez?
Why the fuss over a pink dolphin? It's not like it's the only one. Just Google Hong Kong and Pink Dolphins and you'll see all kinds of different pictures.
aww, that so cute!
ahaha pretty dolphin (:
screw hello kitty - it's ghostgirl like the book and GHOSTGIRL.COM
:)
awww so cute!! just like the lisa frank folders! haha
Just so you know, this dolphin was spotted by the same guy back in JUNE 2007.
Way to be on top of BREAKING NEWS.
OMG, What a beautiful dolphin…..
So pretty… Such a fan of Perez
AWW!! this is soo cutee!!
loveee it!
That's hot. Wait, dolphins can live in lakes? I thought they could only live in oceans.

Re: Mike_Rotch –
hahahaha for sure.

wow thats amazing
I love tis Dolphin I want one for my Birthday!!!
I love this Pink Dolphin I want one for my Birthday!!!
he is gonna have lots of luck with the ladie dolphines
we have, here in brazil, Botos, that it is similar to dolphins, but pink…
omg i want it!
love it! hope the other dolphins don't discriminate against it.
Re: bumtwat69 – YOU ARE SO RIGHT! Lisa Frank was the shit!
lmao x] Thats so cool. I wonder when Paris Hilton will be adopting….??
Buto or Amazon River Dolphins are always pink
That is awesome. I only hope it won't get captured by people who wants to make some money. A pink dolphin in nature sounds so prety. And funny.
Seriously, this is not all that rare. It is a river dolphin. Some are pink, don't y'all watch Go, Diego Go.
Re: smartgirl77 – If you do your research, there are freshwater dolphins and there are also pink dophins, such as found in the Amazon in South America. Perez, you really need to start doing some research. Just because its pink, doesnt mean its albino. It would actually have to have samples taken from it to find out why it is pink. And this same dolphin was reported over a year ago. This is old news.
—Most dolphins do not have good eyesight, they rely in echo-location (sonar). Why dont you do your research and go back to school?
coooooooollllllllllll
Awesome.
It looks plastic
omfg hell yeah!
a pink fucking dolphin!!!
RAW
the pink ones are probably the most vicious of them all.
Wowie zowie
I wanna see this
I liked when Chelsea Handler said she found her own pink dolphin when she was 12 and hasnt stopped playing with it since =)
iv got one in my paddling pool out back
I love dolphins, but I don't like pink!
Amazing. Who cares if it's been around awhile? Now i know about it lol
Hopefully paris hilton doesn't try to adopt it and keep it with her 50 dogs she doesnt take care of.
Gotta love mother nature
