I was surveying on an airfield on Fort Sill, Oklahoma today when I came across this little guy. It was a pretty cold day with strong winds. We were in a very large grassy area that is kept mowed, but not as short as a lawn. I found him just sitting on top the grass.



Being an Albino, I figurd he must be an escapee. However the nearest military housing units are about 3/4 a mile away (where reptiles are not allowed, but possibly kept). he has a few battle scars on him too.



What do you think of the possibility of him being a a naturally ocurring albino? Any help in ID would be appreciated. He doesn't have the "look" of a Corn. I was thnking Great plains rat but the anal plate is not split. Prarie King?



Thanks for looking, Dave
