Rare White Animals and Albinos
Bluish-grey anerythristic albinos lack the red colour. Axanthic albinos lack the yellow colour. The actual colour and pattern of these animal depends on what other colours are in the pattern. Tyrosinase-negative albinos lack tyrosinase (an enzyme which synthesises melanin) in their cells; this usually produces a pale yellowish or cream animal with pink-eyes. The more common Tyrosinase Positive albino cannot synthesise melanin, but can synthesise tyrosinase, giving a fawn or lavender (platinum) colour.
Leucism is often mistaken for albinism. Leucistic animals, such as white lions, are white or very pale, with dark eyes and some pigmentation, for example ghost markings. Chinchilla is sometimes mistaken for albinism, but is caused by a different mutation that affects the distribution of pigment on the hair shaft. White tigers are chinchilla. Other mutations also cause white animals; some of the animals pictured here (white peacocks) are white, but not albino.

White Deer - More Common now.
Albino deer like this one, photographed near Seneca Falls, N.Y., are protected by an Illinois law enacted in the early 1980s that prohibits hunters from shooting all-white deer.An albino in the wild is very rare. A Wisconsin study estimated albinos occurred once in every 42,500 births. Illinois might be the best place to see white deer.
White deer are also found in upstate New York, where a sizable albino herd thrives behind the high fence of a former missile depot near Seneca Falls, N.Y. It's almost impossible to drive past the depot without seeing white deer - or drivers stopped by the side of the road to gawk. Deer commonly travel in the company of whitetails with normal colors, as in the case of this trio pictured at Seneca Falls, N.Y.

(Perfect) Red Heifer also is a very rare animal.
The birth of a red heifer in Israel is being hailed by religious Jews as a sign from God that work can soon begin on building the Third Temple in Jerusalem.It can now be revealed that a red heifer was born in Israel. After the heifer's owner contacted the Temple Institute, on Friday, April 5th, 2002, Rabbi Menachem Makover and Rabbi Chaim Richman traveled to the farm where the heifer is located, to inspect and validate her status. The rabbis found her to be kosher and were satisfied that this heifer could indeed be a candidate to be used in the process of purification described in the book of Numbers, chapter 19. This is an important development towards the rebuilding of the Holy Temple.
Numbers 19:2: Speak unto the Children of Israel that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke.
