This is one unusual pet spotted wearing pink.

Welcome to Rose Lake which is located in Senegal. The lake only covers an area of a little over 32 Sq. Ft. This pink lake has a salt concentration of 380 gallons per liter, which is very salty.  Many of the Senegalese people mine salt from the lake bottom. The salt that is extracted is carried to shore in cakes. To protect their skin, the salt collectors rub their skin with shea butter which is an salve that is used to avoid damage to the tissues of the skin.

These photos taken by JeongMee Yoon of Korea show beyond a shadow of a doubt that boys love blue and girls love pink. Stereotypes confirmed. Well, it may not always be true.

This pink colored lake located in Senegal is called Lake Retba or Lac Rose. Its glamour color is due to many minerals and microorganisms in the water. Women in Senegal spend up to 14 hours a day on the banks of this lake to harvest salt. Each liter of water has about 380 grams  of salt.
