Tanzania shares footage of rare albino zebra

Must Read

Name Ndasiata after an area of the Serengeti where the foal was first seen, the eight-month-old is doing well, the park authorities say.
The young animal is thought to be one of the most fully albino zebras ever seen – much paler that others spotted in East Africa.

In contrast, a rare polka-dot zebra was born in neighbouring Kenya nearly three years ago.
It is thought that zebra had spots instead of stripes because of a melanin disorder – meaning she had an excess of melanin, the dark pigment found in skin.
