Specialists from Melbourne had to conduct a genetic analysis, during which it was revealed what kind of creature was in front of them.
Such specimens are not often found in nature, and even more so rarely survive. Everyone has the opportunity to see this fabulous creature with their own eyes.
The first thought that comes to mind when looking at it is the fabulous Pikachu. However, we are talking about the so-called “fox kuzu”, which is a distant relative of opossums.
In the conditions of life in wildlife, it has dark fur, which also has a grayish or reddish tint.
However, it happens that the level of melanin in the animal drops, due to which its skin acquires a light shade.
As for this particular creature, she faced the problem of a genetic failure, due to which the color of the coat became light and not expressive.
Surviving under such conditions in wildlife is quite problematic, as the color attracts the attention of predators.
The baby will be transferred to the nursery, where he will be studied. After the examination, the animal will receive special care. It will not be able to live in the wild.
What name would you give this incredible animal?
