"Albino Animals" |
 |
Snowflake, White Cloud, Snowdrop and Casper are just a few of the
amazing albino animals you will meet inside this book.
Nature splashes color all around us. Most living creatures have
chemicals called pigments that determine what color they will be. Colors can
range from deep black to bright red to electric blue.
But what happens when a person, plant or animal carries the genetic code for NO
pigments ? The lack of pigment is called albinism. Animals and people with
albinism usually have pale skin, white hair, and pink, red, or blue eyes. And
they face special challenges. |
