Revealing the secret of albino animals: 48+ charming colorless creatures
Given the abundance of colors found in the animal domain, it can be both disturbing and remarkable to encounter an animal without color. Albino animals, the rare completely white sreses, and leucistic organisms are the same as other animals, although with a clarification that (occasionally) makes them terau.
Albinism is a general term for several inherited pigmentation disorders. Most albino animals are born with white or pink fur and skin, and some (but not all) have red or violet eyes.
Albinism in animals is linked to vision problems and increased susceptibility to malignant skin diseases, but albino animals and humans are indistinguishable from their peers.
Leucism is similar to albinism in that it affects a broader spectrum of pigments.
White fur may look nice, but it actually makes the animal more visible to predators by making it stand out from its surroundings.
And while these peculiar creatures can thrive in perpetually cold environments, survival in the jungle is considerably more difficult.
