Record #184340:

A white killer whale in the central Aleutians / Martin Renner, Kevin Bell.

Title: A white killer whale in the central Aleutians / Martin Renner, Kevin Bell.
Author(s): Renner, Martin.
Bell, Kevin.
Date: 2008.
In: Arctic. (2008.), Vol. 61(1) (2008)
Abstract: Reports observation of white adult killer whale (Orcinus orca) on 7 August 2000 off north side of Adak Island. Open saddle and rounded dorsal fin type suggest that whale belongs to fish-eating ("resident") ecotype. Circular scar matching cookie-cutter shark (Isistius sp.) bite mark is possible evidence that specimen originated in warmer waters.
