Albinism is an innate melanin deficiency that results in a lack of color in skin, hair, fur, and the iris of the eye. In people, there is one albino in every 20 thousand newborns. Strangely, in Africa, to the South of the Sahara, they are born way more often. It is also interesting that not just people can be albino — animals can be albino too. It’s probably not easy to be a white tiger, a white owl, or a white giraffe in the wild world.

SmallJoys has found 23 albino animals that are actually very rare. So, this is your chance to see them.

My Madagacar Leaf-nosed Snake!? This girl eats anoles for me, they are strictly lizard eaters since a diet of rodents would be bad for them since their body isn’t designed to digest them.

An occasional rodent is okay for them if they’ll eat it, many of them actually won’t! #leafnosedsnake #madagascar #langaha #bizarre #weird #colubrid #colubridsofinstagram #snake #snakesofinstagram #snakes #reptile #reptilesofinstagram #petstagram #animalsofinstagram #girlswithsnakes #girlswithreptiles #exoticpet #beautifulsnake #animalsofinstagram #herpetology #snek #instagood #instapet #instadaily #animallover #snakelover #reptilelover #reptilekeeper #herp

Mexican hairy dwarf

View this post on Instagram

A Mexican hairy dwarf porcupine named Simon at @philadelphiazoo. This porcupine’s body grows to between 12 and 18 inches long and its tail can reach up to 14 inches. Its short yellow spikes are almost completely concealed by its long hair covering its entire body, with the exception of its head. This porcupine uses its long tail to grasp onto branches, as it spends most of its time in trees. Being a nocturnal animal, this species uses the same exact hiding spot every day and then reveals itself at night in order to forage for food like fruit, leaves and seeds. . . #porcupine #yellow #animalfacts #photoark #natgeo

Mexican honeypot ant

View this post on Instagram

Photo by @joelsartore | Mexican honeypot ants are named for the incredible way they store resources. These ants are like tiny refrigerators, stashing food for the whole colony in anticipation of dry seasons. Designated worker ants called “repletes” hang from the ceiling of their nest, while foraging workers bring them nectar and juices from insect prey– which is edible with a sweet and tangy flavor. Their abdomens slowly become spherical and transparent as they swell with sugary liquids. They can reach the size of a small grape— some become so large that they cannot leave the nest! All of this work insures that the whole colony can eat even when food is not readily available. These little ants are so full of nutrients that they are often eaten by other animals— even humans. This is one of over 100 species of honeypot ant found in warm arid regions around the world. This species occurs in the southwestern US and northern Mexico, where they feed primarily on nectar and small insects. #honeypotant #PhotoArk
