Video: Have You Ever Seen an Albino Tortoise?

Well, now you have.

Card

Albino tortoises and turtles are unique among albino animals in that they are not relatively rare, and are able to survive pretty well in the wild due to their tough shells. Unlike other species, albino tortoises and turtles also seem to cope better with any health problems associated with their albinism, making them popular among breeders in captivity.

Keep in mind though, this cute sulcuta tortoise can live up to 150 years and is one of the largest of its kind, with the heaviest specimens weighing more than 200 pounds. This is one pet that you’ll have to prepare long in advance for.
