Rare white humpback whale filmed in the Arctic

Posted by Nic S - 20 November 2012 at 7:38pm - Comments

The whale, dubbed "Willow", was caught on camera while breaching the surface with a pod of humpbacks. The extremely rare white humpback was spotted on a boat trip off the coast of Svalbard, Norway, in the pristine waters of the Arctic Circle. Willow resembles the mythical white whale, Moby Dick.

Another reminder of the rare and priceless wildlife that rely on the fragile Arctic waters for survival.

I think she is a minke or fin whale, to be more precisely. So the "scientific" research can leagally and fatally catch her... Don't let the whaling fleet find you!!!

These beautiful white whales that are appearing are like angels of the sea.
