The cute pink dolphin appearing at sea has become a topic of discussion among netizens on X and Facebook.

In recent days, on social networks, an image of a pink dolphin appeared on the beach. A user on X claims that this rare aquatic mammal has been discovered off the coast of North Carolina (USA). Some others said this was a new image taken on the coast of Chumphon, Surat or Koh Samui, Thailand.

Images of pink dolphins are being spread on many social media sites around the world

The truth about the cute pink dolphin then made netizens curious. According to Times Now News, this image may be the product of artificial intelligence (AI) or other photo editing technology. Some netizens believe that the dolphin causing a stir has an unusual “plastic” appearance and the same pose in each photo.

Many people think that the dolphin’s pose is the same in every photo

However, the pink dolphin is still a real animal even though it is extremely rare. Also known as the Amazon river dolphin and boto, this mammal is native to South America and lives in the freshwaters of the Amazon and Orinoco river basins of Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru and Venezuela . Meanwhile, the waters of North Carolina – where pink dolphins are rumored to appear – are thousands of kilometers away from these countries.

In the waters of Koh Samui and the small islands surrounding this famous tourist area, pink dolphins have been witnessed. This is even one of the unique spots promoted in Koh Samui tours.

Besides, no authorities in Thailand or the US have confirmed the appearance of the above rare dolphins. North Carolina wildlife authorities have never confirmed the presence of pink dolphins in the area.

Although the truth about the image of a pink dolphin causing a stir on social networks cannot be verified as real or fake, the existence of this rare animal is real and has been discovered many times.
