Pod of pinkies classed as endangered

September 4th 2008 05:46
Pink dolphins? What will nature think up next...evolution didn't seem to have it's clever hat on the day it dreamed up these pastel sea mammals...

The pink dolphins - known as Matsu's fish - are found in Taiwan. New research from a group of biologists in Canada has shown that they are genetically distinct to other dolphins - this is good news for the pink-one's - they are now classed as endangered by the IUCN in their own right; their status will be updated from 'data-deficient' on October 6th.

There are thought to be less than 100 of these rare marine mammals. For more info - see the blog : your/]Really Long Link text goes here[/LINK]
