I was checkin my trapline-antler hunting when I stumbled upon this white moose...Attachment 9399 Attachment 9400 I took these pics with my cell phone so sorry about the quality. Click on the pic to see it up close.

What do you think? Is it albino?

I've seen one in the fall that was a greyish/white on the back, had a calf of normal colour. In the spring it can be from ticks, bald spots, sometimes some huge bald spots result from them rubbing off ticks. Results in a lot of spring die offs as they have no coat left to protect them from the elements. Had one here in northern Alberta about 10-12 yrs ago. It kicked the krap out of the moose in a pretty large area up there.

I tried to edit the pic and although I can not say for sure it doesn't look like a moose to me.. Just by looking at it's nose makes me think it is something other than a moose.. I still can't say for sure though. Here is the edited pic anyways..

What do you think it is? :confused2: I promise you it is a moose. Their was another regualer moose behind it.

I think it's a Hyena.

JK....likes like a piebald moose. I've seen piebald deer and moose in the past. If it was albino it would be absent of all color and the nose and eyes would be pink.
