Taxidermy: A Very Rare Albino Eastern Grey Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis), circa late 20th century, a full mount adult sat atop a small cut tree stump in upright position, above moss and soil groundwork, mounted upon a oak rectangular base, overall height 31cm. While grey squirrels with a genetic trait known as leucism, which turns their fur a milky-white colour, are very rare, pure albinos are seen even less frequently, with an incidence of one in a million animals, what points to this grey squirrel being pure albino is its distinctive red eyes, a leucistic squirrel would have dark brown eyes
