 This is the first ever register in the world of a Puma with Leucism ( a genetic mutation that causes depigmentation in some parts of the body its different from Albinism which is the total absence of melanin ). The image was shot at the Parque Nacional Serra dos Orgãos (Parnaso) in Petrópilis. The biologist Cecília Cronemberger who leads the research, explained that the animal was spotted by camera traps, its a young male and was photographed in 2013 in two different places. However, in the following years, the rare White Puma was nowhere to be seen in the region and his whereabouts are still unknown. Reply

Oh okay I'm glad someone posted this rare sighting previously and yeah it is definitely worth sharing it and many people don't even know Puma with Leucism exists. Reply
