also albinism is common in rabbits and mice and other rodents
yes this albino for i should know because i research them:)
you really dont have to be a hunter to know if its albino. it has pink eyes and thats really all you need to know other than white fur. even so albino organisms can have "watery" blue (thats really pale blue) eyes and still be albino (it would have the white fur)
I have an albino rat. She's he cutest! I want an albino squirrel. :D
It's not albino, it's some type of mutation, or a rare/endangered species of squirrel. if you're blind, I get it, but, I have a theory. I've noticed that adults notice and observe much less than children. I think this has something to do with how busy the lives of adults are. They are not as patient as most children. They, with the hustle and bustle of their lives, seem to think that observing is pointless, and want to hurry along and do something more "worthwhile". If you are an adult, please don't be offended. even though children are considered inexperienced, they understand and make theories as well as adults do. And I am only an 11 year old. But that's not my point. My point is that if you look carefully enough, you can see that the eye is black. If you want to argue about the skin, which is pink around the ears, toes and eyes, (the pink around the eyes causes the illusion that it's eyes are red) I want you to know that most animals wih white fur have tannish-pink skin (excluding the white chinchilla) no matter if they are albino or not. I hope you will take my theory into consideration.
i belive u there not albino
11, eh?
Enjoy your observational skills why they last, kid. By twelve you might notice that the world seems a little darker, and by thirteen, well, you'll be as bad as the rest of us, if not worse.
When I was nineteen, I walked around for a month with a sweat sock pulled over my head. I didn't even realize it had been there until a little kid yanked it off.
It is albino because his eyes are red and he is all white,.
It's definatley albino because his eyeys are red and he is all white which means he's100 percent albino!!!!!

It is most definatley albino because his eyes are red. I am a hunter so I should know this stuff and I,ve been a hunter for 3 years.
It's albino 'cause i hunt all the time and i can tell by it's eyes. All albino animal's eyes are pink and their fur is white.
ya, you don't need to be a hunter or anything to know that this is an albino squirrel. You can see that it has pink eyes and no pigment in the skin or the fur (notice the pink skin on the ears and toes).

I'm right with you dakotah because i also hunt and all albino animals have pink eyes and a white body. A while ago i say 3 albino deer when i drove by the they were still fawns though.
I think this squirrel's are red and from what I have read on this website I think that this squirrel happens to be an albino squirrel because of his red eyes. I know alot about albino animals because I am a hunter.
