Rare Albino Baby Turtle Spotted on Great Barrier Reef Island Resort for First Time Since 2016
A baby albino green sea turtle has been spotted making its way across the sand in Australia. The hatchling has a rare pink coloration due to lack of cell pigmentation, and marine experts are excited by the find. But they fear for the turtle’s survival.
