Cute Alert: Pink Dolphins Exist!

March 3, 2009

For those of you still holding out for the existence of unicorns and winged fairies — there is hope after all! A pink dolphin (actually an albino) was spotted last year in a lake in Louisiana. Boatman Erik Rue found it and has been studying it ever since. "I just happened to see a little pod of dolphins," he said, "and I noticed one that was a little lighter." (I never knew that groups of dolphins were called "pods." Adorable. And is it just me, or does Pinky up there seem to know he's special?) Click here to read more and to see a closeup pic of Pinky!

I am a Pink dolphin expert and to let you know Pink dolphins are on the list as a severe endangered species. They have been spotted on the Tiwan strait and the citizans from china are working on consruction in their habitat. The construction has injured many dolphins and starved them since dolphins depend on their hearing for hunting for food the construction has made it hard for them to hear and they can't catch there prey, starving them to death. If you want to keep these beautiul and amazing creatures let people know! Pink Dolphin exppert Dr. Oshiro

This video made me laugh - not because of the pink dophin (which is SUPER cute), but because of the guy filming it. The voice over is hilarious!

There is a specie of pink dolphin that lives in the Amazonian River. So sad they are near extinction.

Oh, look! Someone just brought this to my attention. There's another Pink Dolphin. (NSFW!) Only thing is, it's not as cute as Pinky. :nerdgirl:
