EXTREMELY RARE PIEBALD SHARK SIGHTED OFF ANNA MARIA ISLAND!
Piebaldism is caused by a genetic condition affecting melanin distribution, resulting in striking patchy, unpigmented white areas alongside normal pigmentation. Reaching adulthood with this condition is exceptionally rare because the lack of natural countershading makes young sharks easy targets for predators.
