There is excitement along the coast of Australia as Migaloo, the albino humpback whale, has been observed moving north with a group of black humpback whales. The whales are heading north to find more tepid water.
People are boarding boats to try and get a closer look at the whale which is on the endangered list. He is the only albino humpback whale that has been recorded as being seen in the oceans. Whale spotters are having a good time watching him.
He was spotted amongst a group of black whales which made his white color stand out even more. It is unbelievable is what groups of people who witnessed him swimming along are saying.
It is thought that Migaloo is approximately a 20 year old male humpback whale. He has been sighted many times now along the eastern coast of Australia.
There are rules the people watching the whales have to follow. They have to stay at least 500 meters back from the whales according to law. If caught any closer then that they will be fined 16 thousand dollars in Australian currency.
