Oh, I am most certain its a wild caught yellow rat, not a cross nor an escaped pet or release. It was found very far from any human habitation. I have examined it in detail with a magnifiging glass side by side with a wild caught normal yellow from the same area, and it looks in every way just like the normal except for the color differences. And unless someone is releasing albino yellow rats in the glades, I would think finding a release would be as difficult as lucky as it was to find the albino.

However the case, a few albino yellows have turned up in the past in Florida.

And not too far from this one, a scaleless yellow rat was found.

And I am not sure this snake is a true "albino" so to speak. I think it is a "T" Positive Albino. I need to get a book of sorts and figure it out I suppose.
