Albino squirrels have no protection from the sun. They are often outcasted by their family and become loners, which also decreases their chance of survival. An albino squirrel has white fur and pink or blue eyes. They are a symbol of good luck.
Today in the afternoon when I was about to have my lunch, my eyes captured a rare creature. I saw his tail which was Marble-like white with furs. Then he stood up and saw me with its watery ,shiny and innocent-looking eyes. I felt like I am going God-Ward. This creature was non other than a squirrel. But this one was not brown in color and did not had the three lines on his body.
He was white. White squirrels are rare species of squirrels which are known as “Albino Squirrels”. Mammalogists estimate that the odds of a female gray squirrel giving birth to an albino offspring are 1 in 100,000.Some major places they can be found include Marionville, Missouri; Brevard, North Carolina; Olney, Illinois; Kenton, Tennessee; Northern Keys, Florida; Charlotte, North Carolina; Exeter, Ontario Canada, and nearby Tallahassee, FL (Tallahassee Museum of History & Natural Science).
