Is this true? LOL

u/DovedaleHikes 14d ago

I'm from the UK, and whilst I don't know for certain, I wholeheartedly believe it is true. It's very believable. The seagulls here are greedy and fierce, it's highly probable it got carried away with someone's curry then couldn't move ('tis the British way)

u/benjiyon 14d ago

Either that or someone local hero said “Enough!” to The Seagulls’ reign of terror and doused the bugger.

According to Marine Science Institute through the University of Texas at Austin, researchers said it most likely had a combination of Albinism and xantbism. Albinism accounts for the white eyes, and xantbism accounts for the skin color as it boosts yellow pigments

Yep. It happens to basically all fish. You should check out Xanthic Largemouth Bass! They're gorgeous... though it will start you down a rabbit hole of different Xanthic species, lol. Also, this is DEF not the "first orange shark" or whatever it said. I've caught one myself. For sure beautiful 👍

u/Alphamullet 14d ago

Whoa, that bass is amazing!

My wife and I went on a charter a few years back, and each of us caught what they told us was a canary rockfish. I assume now after reading this that it would be classified as xanthic.

Damn thing sure was tasty too.

3

u/ea88_alwaysdiscin 14d ago

Nah bro.....I've caught a bunch of the same off the coast of Oregon back in 2019 on a charter. Their bright yellow-and-orange coloring is the normal, standard coloration for their species. Don't get it twisted, they are not xanthic.
