Researchers in Alaska have managed to spot a white killer whale and have managed to to take a picture of the white orca. The sighting has made big news because very little is known about pure white orca and how they actually occur in nature.
A blogger was quick to upload one of the pictures of the white killer whale which was taken by one of the researchers. You can find the white killer whale picture here. The researcher who spotted the white killer whale stated that seeing something like this is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack.
Apparently this specific white killer whale is not a complete albino because it still contains some dark marks on it's body, but from what I can see in the picture it looks pure white. The researchers only saw the spotting as a bonus and did not conduct any research on the specific white killer whale.
