n HAVE a pure white Persian cat
named Lord Jitters," and he is
deaf as a stone "Jitters" would
be perfect albino except that his
eyes are green instead of pink. Al
though albinism is not directly con-
nected with deafness. the two often
occur in conjunction. Certain strains
produce animals which are usually
deaf, such as coach dogs and white
Persian cats. Albinism is "sport" -
a mutation in which there is no color
pigment in the tissues - and the pink
eyes are caused by red blood circulat-
ing in the retina. As a rule, these pink
eyes are very sensitive to light.
Albinos appear in most races OF
man, about one in ten thousand.
They occur frequently in domesti-
Gated animals and in almost all wild
ones. A pure white tarpon with pink
eyes was recently caught in Florida
waters. We have live albino frog
in the Museum, a white squirrel and a
live albino snake. A few years ago a
ghost deer" was reported from the
Adirondacks. You can see it now on
the thmd-floor gallery of the Museum.
1t was perfect albino.
Mechanism is the opposite of albin-
ism and is caused by superabund-
ance of minute granules of melanin, or
