Rare albino shark photographed in Australia

A rare albino grey nurse shark has been spotted at Australia's best known diving and fishing spot Fish Rock in NSW. The photo of the 2.2m male was taken by Fish Rock Dive Centre owner Jon Cragg 2km off South West Rocks. Mr Cragg was speechless when the amazing creature swam past him. "I saw the big white shadow in the water with two other sharks then when I saw it I couldn't believe it, it was like a ghost coming out of the darkness," Mr Cragg said. "No one has ever seen one like this before - it was pretty exciting." (via)
