The title explains everything: pictures of melanistic, albino, and leucistic animals go here. I was inspired to make this thread after coming across this picture today. Three fallow deer: leucistic, common, and melanistic all together. Image source->

I took this photo two years ago in Gatorland (Orlando, Florida). Ngl, I don't remember if it was albino or leucistic, or if anything nearby explained such. I think it might be albino; all of Gatorland's leucistic alligators have some degree of normal skin patching on them. Even their most white leucistic specimen has one small patch of normal skin over one of its eyes, which this specimen seems to lack ( link->).

I hope videos belong here, too. This albino giraffe looks downright surreal to me (and yes, there's a rather tragic fate attached to it, just read the comments):

Might as well share something from personal experience. Local biologists don't think it was an albino brown trout, despite my very excited caption, but i've never caught anything like this before. For comparisons sake, this is what a normal brown trout in this size class looks like. Of course, i released that one. Fairly certain i saw it swimming near the bank a month or so ago, with some size on it. I say that because i dont think there are many aberrant colored brown trout in my area like that lol.
