Staff members at the OneRiot offices were shocked enough to learn that there are actually dolphins in some lakes, so when we discovered that—get this—a pink dolphin has been swimming around in one of them, things kind of got crazy.
While skeptics may suggest that our sources for this story included ‘The Dark Crystal’ on Blu-Ray and a suspicious baggy, the mystical creature truly exists. Charter boat captain Erik Rue caught a glimpse of the by-all-accounts mythological beast in Louisiana’s Lake Calcasieu and snapped its photo like a seasoned pap, creating a worldwide stir that has some conservationists really effing freaked out. After all, this is no common occurrence: some claim that the albino dolphin, reported to be “absolutely stunningly pink,” is the only one of its kind in the world.
This amazing aquatic enigma is fast becoming a thing of lore with Calcasieu locals, yet the most intriguing part of the tale is that it has yet to be given a name. So, in the spirit of OneRiot’s incredible social community (and penchant for shameless self-promotion), we want to read what you have to say: name the pink bottlenose in the comments and cement your place in history…or at least for the next couple days.
