Rare pink dolphins mark their presence in the Gulf of Mexico; internet stunned
The southeastern US state of Louisiana witnessed a rare pink dolphin gracing the Gulf of Mexico’s waters last week. According to CBS News, the split seconds when the aquatic mammal was seen out of the water was caught on camera by Thurman Gustin. Based on the report, Gustin has been fishing for more than two decades. He spotted two dolphins near the Gulf of Mexico in Cameron Parish on 12 July. The clip, which he uploaded on Facebook, gained traction within a few days. In an interview with CBS News, the fisherman revealed that although he has regularly spotted dolphins in the area, this particular experience has left him aghast.
He further added: “The big pink one passed by and had a smaller one next to it,” he said. “My girlfriend also noticed the size differences.”
Check out Gustin’s Twitter clip:
