A unique albino trepang caught in Primorye

A unique albino trepang caught in Primorye

A scientific ship «Akademik Oparin» came back to Vladivostok from  Okhotskoe sea expedition. Scientists have been fishing out materials for examination for almost two months. One of the most unique and rare species that were caught is an albino trepang. Trepangs of such colour are very rare for Primorye. 

Ichthyologists say that the most difficult part of their job is getting the creatures out of water, as the water near the surface is warm, so not every animal can survive it. But this time the expedition was successful. The biggest part of fish and invertebrates will not only become examination objects, but will also join the the oceanarium collection.
