A rare occurrence happened on Wednesday when a white dolphin was spotted swimming through a Clearwater canal.
This is the first reported sighting of this rare dolphin in over a year
According to CMA, the young dolphin, named Cherub, is suspected to have hypo-pigmentation. That means it was born a normal color, but has gotten lighter over time.
The Clearwater Marine Aquarium is asking anyone who sees Cherub to give them a call at 727-441-1790 ext. 1, so they continue to keep an updated record on the dolphin’s health and growth.
