Pink Porpoises On Parade

Via Bob perkypants Morris at Politics in the Zeros, The Telegraph reports on an albino dolphin spotted in Louisiana, USA:

Captain Rue: "It was absolutely stunningly pink.

"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.

"The dolphin appears to be healthy and normal other than its coloration, which is quite beautiful and stunningly pink.

"The mammal is entirely pink from tip to tail and has reddish eyes indicating it's albinism. The skin appears smooth, glossy pink and without flaws.

"I have personally spotted the pink dolphin 40 to 50 times in the time since the original sighting as it has apparently taken up residence with its family in the Calcasieu ship channel.

Nature at its finest... And yes! I know a porpoise is really different from a dolphin. But I like the title, damnit! lol

How can a pink dolphin NOT result in having a Perkypants moment, I ask you???
