The Ultra Rare Albino Humpback Whale Was Just Spotted Off Australian Coast

When he reaches Australia, according to Queensland's laws, tour operator's vessels are not allowed within 500 meters of the whale, and if they break the rules, they can be fined up to AU $16,500 (US $11,298). At first, Migaloo was not considered albino due to his brown eyes and was called 'all-white', or 'hypo-pigmented'. Yet, in 2011, after an analysis of his DNA, researchers at the Australian Marine Mammal Centre confirmed that he was a true albino, as they found a genetic variation leading to albinism.
