We live so much in our own human worlds that we often forget the power and mysticism that often occurs in nature. If you've ever watched a documentary about the ocean or mushrooms, you know exactly what we're talking about. Ocean life can resemble what we think of aliens, and mushrooms are so wild that we gave them their own classification. But we're not talking about deep-sea creatures or the wonders of the mycelium today, we're talking about a rare genetic disorder that some animals are born with that causes them to stick out, but in a perfectly awwdorable way - albinism!

Animals with albinism are quite rare and are born with reduced or an inability to create melanin in their hair or skin. This causes them to be nearly pure white! Imagine being born in the jungle as an all-white tiger; you would stick out like a sore thumb. But, just because they're different doesn't make them any less beautiful.

These astonishing albino animals below reveal to us the wildest wonders of nature. They show us that being different isn't scary, but something to embrace. The animal kingdom is full of surprises if you know where to look for them, so scroll down to see some amazing animals looking like a bride on her wedding day.

Albinism isn't all pure white beauty, though. Because the animals lack melanin, which is crucial for skin protection from the sun and eye devlopment, these creatures tend to burn easily in the sun and have frequent eye problems. Somebody book them an eye exam and get them some sunscreen, stat!
