A Labrador puppy born with green hair made a sensation in the Brazilian state of Sao Paolo, the local newspaper Globo reported on Friday.
The puppy, which was born in late November in the town of Mairinque, 65 km from Sao Paulo, was named Hulk, after the green comic book superhero.
The other eight puppies in the litter were born with normal white hair.
Veterinarians have explained the phenomenon is because the pup's mother was exposed during pregnancy to a substance called biliverdin, which can be found in the placenta.
Ten days after birth, Hulk lost the pigment and is now just as white as his siblings.
