An albino is an animal (or a person) that is born without any color. Albinos have pale, whitish fur, feathers, or hair, and pink skin and eyes. Albinos are very rare in nature because they usually do not live very long. One reason for this is that they often become blind and cannot take care of themselves. Another reason is simply the color. In most regions, a white animal a. is not noticed by other animals, and so it is not disturbed.
