Amazing Encounter With Rare White Orca Off California Coast
A group of whale watchers received the sight of a lifetime when they spotted a rare, all-white orca off the coast of California.
‘It’s already rare to see orcas in this area, yet alone a white one,’ said Mark Girardeau, a drone and wildlife photographer, via Newsflare.
The orca, which has been nicknamed Frosty, was born with leucism, which affects its levels of pigmentation. Only a handful of orcas on Earth are known to have this condition. Researchers have been tracking Frosty’s pod, known as CA216, for a while now. The pod has been known to travel in the Pacific waters between California and Mexico.
