White Killer Whale Spotted

My blogs for the trimester are already done, but I felt like doing this one anyways...

A white killer whale has been spotted! It's true, after years of speculation and rumors about this "mythical" creature, it was finally seen last month on the Aleutian Islands in Alaska. Holly Fearnbach, a research biologist with the National Marine Mammal Laboratory in Seattle, captured the top part of the whale on camera, which is quite a rare sight. The whale appeared to be a male, in healthy condition, about 20-35 feet long and wighing more than 10,000 pounds.
