The Tsimshian clan and other West Coast aboriginal tribes have stories about a mythical white orca that patrols the waters of the west coast. Some myths tell a story of a white wolf who hunted the mountain ranges, but asked Mother Earth to transform it into a whale so it ease its loneliness by hunting in the sea. A white whale is a very powerful totem.
This week, scientists managed to take some pictures of a white orca off the pacific coast. It is not necessarily an albino, but an incredibly rare animal in any event.

What an awsome picture!
Albino animals are my favorites, and i asked my parents if i could have an albino snake, but they said no.
I know that you said that this orca hasn't been classified as albino yet, but i'm just saying.
Albinos are the coolest.
