Scientists classify albinism as a disorder or disease, a partial or complete loss of coloring in hair, eyes and skin. In fact, this happens throughout biology. In other words, humans and animals alike can be albino. So do you want to take a closer look? Well, good. Because these rare albino animals will amaze you…
Albino Whale
This is Migaloo, “the only documented albino humpback whale in the world.” His first discovery was in 1991, off the coast of Queensland, Australia. Since then, researchers have kept a close eye on him, proving thanks to DNA testing that he was indeed albino. His name comes from an Australian aboriginal term meaning “white fella”.
