Behold a Rare Baby White Whale




























From Colossal:

Among humpback whales, which can grow upwards of 60 feet long and weigh up to 40 tons, instances of albinism are exceedingly rare.

But when these otherworldly all-white mammals appear — such as the beloved Migaloo that was first spotted in 1991 off Australia's east coast—they inspire wonder.

Marine photographer Jono Allen captured a unique shot of a baby white humpback being nudged by its mother, taking the top prize in the 2026 World Nature Photography Awards(WNPA), in addition to winning the Underwater category.
