Meet today's Fresh Catch, the only pink bottlenose dolphin in the world! This adorable dolphin was discovered in a Louisiana lake by charter boat captain Erick Rue.
He said, "I just happened to see a little pod of dolphins, and I noticed one that was a little lighter. 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 beautiful pink color is actually due to albinism, as indicated by its pink eyes. As always with wild dolphins, visitors are urged to observe from a distance and be respectful to this amazing creature.
