This unbelievable (yet real) photo shows a one-eyed albino shark that was found off the coast of Isla Cerralvo near La Paz, Mexico, in June 2011. The image went viral after being posted on the blog of a local sportfishing company, which was forced to defend the photo after skeptics questioned its integrity. The company later published more pictures of the unique albino baby and discovered that a commercial fisherman had extracted it after catching a dead female bull shark with ten pups inside her.
