What makes you different can also be exactly what makes you beautiful, and in our eyes here at I Can Has Cheezburger, nothing is more beautiful than rare albino animals living their unique lives in the wilderness. These unique and special creatures have a certain kind of beauty in their individuality, and it's truly a sight to behold! You might be wondering, what is albinism? Well albinism is an inherited genetic condition that reduces the amount of melanin pigment formed in the fur, skin, and or eyes. It causes these animals to look very pale, and in many cases be bright white in a striking way that many find quite beautiful
This condition is super rare, which is why you will seldom find an animal that looks like these, but luckily we have scoured the internet to find pictures of these albino beauties! We hope you enjoy scrolling through photos of these awwdorable sweethearts from all over the animal kingdom. Their special pigment can sometimes make them targets of other animals or of hooman poachers, which is why we must work extra hard to protect these very special animals. So without further ado, we hope that you enjoy these images:
Wow, look at this super awesome alligator just doing his albino alligator thing! We love how apparent the detailing on his hide is based on the coloring. Albino animals are at a greater risk of being hunted and killed for their unique pelts, so it's super important that we protect these very special creatures, just look at how beautiful they are and you'll see exactly why it's so important!
Awww, this owl is so small and delicate, and here at I Can Has Cheezburger we love to toggle at owls who are smol and cute, just like this one! We hope that this teeny tiny baby has a very good time flying around, it must be hard to camouflage yourself at night when you're bright white, maybe this little guy can get a tip or two from barn owls.
