Photo of the day - February 6

The rarely seen Albino Moose is a beautiful sight that Mother Nature has kept fairly secret for years. The Albino are totally white with pink eyes. They don't blend in with the forest very well so they tend to be easy targets for predators. Albinism is due to various gene mutations that affect the production of normal pigmentation. Their pink nose is also a sign of being an albino. This is the same moose that made our photo of the day back in October. This photo was taken on February 5. Photo Courtesy Lisa Stossmeister
