They will do an autopsy to find out if it is the famous albino humpback whale Migaloo.
A resident of the Australian state of Victoria, in the south of the country, found the body of a a rare albino whalethe public channel reports this Saturday ABC.
“It looked like a beautiful type of white marble sculpture,” the Australian told ABC. Peter Colewho found the specimen on Mallacoota beach after getting into a kayak and taking a series of photographs that he posted on social networks.
The whale has a length of about 10 meters and It could be the rare albino humpback whale called by Australian scientists as migaloofirst sighted in 1991 and regularly visiting the east coast of Australia.
The photograph taken by the Australian Peter Coles, who found the specimen in Mallacoota Beach.
Will it be Migaloo?
Vanessa Pirotta, a biologist at Macquarie University, told the Australian channel it’s too early to know if it’s Migaloo as they have not yet been able to collect samples from the corpse.
“Over time, if the animal is dead, the skin can fade and as a result it can turn white (…) But looking at the photos, appears to be a genuinely white whale“Pirotta points out, asking that an autopsy be performed on the whale to find out the causes of death.
