>Albino gray whales have it hard in life. Their eyes cannot cope with the
>sunlight and are very sensitive to light. This is because of the lack of
>color or pigments in their irises and retinas. The whales may also have
>difficulties interacting with the other whales because they are different
>from the others. Also their white skin is easy to see from many predators
>even from far away. I think that it is harder for whales to be an albino
>because in nature, their are no racism laws and they could get eaten. It
>is also hard for humans because people treat you differently and not the
>way you would like to be treated...like everyone else.
