Leucism is a condition that results in partial loss of the pigments that give an animal its color. It’s similar to albinism which is the complete absence of melanin pigments. Interestingly, one of the characteristics that differs between leucism and albinism is the color of the eyes. Leucistic animals have their normal color eyes while albino animals have pink/red eyes. Horned Grebes naturally have red eyes so one might think it’s albino, but there are still some darker feathers present on its h

Did you know this fluffy white cloud is NOT an albino hamster? She is a combination of several genes (dominant, recessive, and codominant) that all contribute to her color. Partial albinism does exist in Syrian hamsters via genes like dilute and extreme dilute! Sugar Baby has two genes of silver grey (codominant), two genes of yellow (dominant), two genes of cinnamon (recessive), two genes of black (recessive), and I suspect one gene of Russian Shadow, a strange gene that is dominant to cinnamon

These Albino Alligators are marvelous to look at! 🤩 Their remarkable patchy white skin is a result of a rare genetic condition. These “pied” or “piebald” alligators carry a partial pigment loss that gives them their distinctive spots and patches. While captivating, these colorations make them exceptionally vulnerable in the wild; their lack of natural camouflage hinders their ability to hunt and makes them easy targets for predators. Which makes sense why you don’t see many of these in the wild
