I thought albinos were only white
Well, albinos is supposed to be the absence of pigmentation so
one could think the pink is the basic colour of a dolphin's skin ...
and they'd be right.
The image I gave was too small to show it but the animal has red
eyes which is a marker for albinism and the skin shows blood vessels.
It is the blood in its system that gives those colorations!
Alba or perfect white is the root for albino because our own skin
as humans is rather thick with its 3 layers and that the external one
receives little enough blood save by osmosis ( it breathes air though ).
Thus white is only our species' result from lack of coloration.
And as usual, we anthropomorphize by using it for all others!
Human uncontrolled collective ego again and
name carry-over laziness!
Have a great day, persona.non-exe, Tay.
