(ALT 103.7) Spotting a dolphin in the ocean is a rare and exciting experience, but spotting a pink dolphin is almost unheard of. That’s why when someone spotted a famous pink dolphin with a pink calf they were downright shocked. Pinky, a famous pink dolphin found in Louisiana was recently caught on video swimming and jumping near a boat with her calf by her side.

According to those with knowledge of the species, Pinky is a rare river dolphin whose pink color comes from a genetic mutation. The International Union for Conservation of Nature says Pinky’s species is endangered or vulnerable. While the environment doesn’t affect Pinky, she is often swimming below the surface. Luckily, now there’s a second pink dolphin in the area, for boaters to spot.
