FfFfFfFF 58,133 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 MONTEREY — In the days leading up to Halloween, a rare all-white dolphin named “Casper” has been frequenting the Monterey Bay. But sighting the perplexing creature isn’t a trick of the eyes, or just a spooky Halloween treat. The dolphin actually visits the region quite often, according to Nancy Black, a marine biologist with Monterey Bay Whale Watch Black and other scientists think the dolphin is around 9 years old — still a juvenile since Risso’s can live up to 35 years. Casper frequently travels with his mother and has been seen as far north as Davenport, with pods of hundreds and even thousands of other dolphins. Monterey Bay Whale Watch photographer Daniel Bianchetta first spotted Casper in 2015, and named the dolphin. “It was magical,” Bianchetta said, “The name just seemed appropriate. We wouldn’t see him for six months at a time, so he was kind of like a ghost, you’d see him sometimes, and then you wouldn’t.” Source - https://www.santacruzsentinel.com/2021/10/29/rare-white-dolphin-casper-spotted-days-before-halloween-in-monterey-bay/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
