I don't think a lack of wild albinos is a good argument for not bothering to add alternate skins - there's still plenty of variation in coat patterns/unusual mutations.
- There are most certainly white/black wolves (not albinos). Wolves should have multiple coat variants
- Here's a Leuc Hyena. Also found this image though it's hard to tell if that really is melanistic
- There are heavily black african wild dogs & tan african wild dogs
- I did not have any luck finding abnormal coat patterns for snow leopards, so that one gets a pass (could still add one with a paler/darker coat)

Yeah, I know a lot of "albino" in Planet zoo aren't really albino, that ticked cheetah is probably the worst example of an animal being called an albino in this game... A lot of them are leucistic instead of albino...
I just really hope I can get my white hyenas in Planet Zoo >w< They were in Wildlife park 2 and I totally loved them... + they were super easy to breed

Is getting albino animals only available in Franchise Mode? Has anyone gotten any in sandbox?
I have gotten one in Career mode, off the market
I got a leutistic hippo in sandbox, but I think it's harder to get in sandbox. I have bred a loooot of animals in my sandbox zoo, but only got one albino so far
Thank you!
Born in my game to two regular green iguanas, in sandbox mode.
Buyed a panda to breed
a Lion Cub
A male Zebra I wanna breed later
A bounch of white Peacocks
more will Follow
A mutated 3 headed Peacock. I couldn't resist to post it
It doesn't have red eyes,because it's leucistic and not albino.That's why it's fur isn't pure white,too.
Not at all.Blue eye colour tends to appear in combination with leucism,because of the partial loss of pigments,but it's still rare.Brown is the most common eye colour and thus 80% of leucistic animals have brown ("black") eyes,because there is no total lack of melanin as in albinism.

I played for a while today and there was tons of albinos for sale! I only looked at the ostriches, lions and tigers but foune at least 2 pages worth on each animal. They weren't expensive either so now I already have one albino baby ostrich and have wasted most of my conservation credits on a male abino lion. Just keep checking and you'll find some x

I would name it Skully because of the Skull-like Appearance of the Head

So, are sandbox mutations just harder to achieve or something? Every video I see in Franchise seems to pop out mutation babies non-stop, but in sandbox I've only ever encountered a single albino and it was a boa constrictor that spontaneously appeared in the exhibit market (never saw one again since).
It's a bummer, because I would love white tigers.
Maybe that's an idea - a localised sandbox market. You could set up a zoo to farm for certain animals, add them to your "local" market, and trade them between sandbox zoos. That way I could throw down a bunch of Bengal tigers in an empty zoo, breed until I get the mutation, and then transfer them over to my main zoo.

They are so pretty
I guess its harder to get albinos in sandbox as there are only the game generated animals, while in franchise many people breed the albions they got by chance or bought (like myself) So more animals with the "albino" gene are on the market. For the generated animals its more random and rare, I think.
My first albions (in franchise, of course) were peafowls born by chance on the second day and I started to breed them like crazy
When I tried to sell someI named them albino or leucistic... but no one would buy them, not even a gold one for just 100 cc - which I guess is because nobody wanted to get scammed (as this was before they updated the pic) So I gave up trying to make cc with them and just sold them for very cheap. I hope I made some people happy with white suprise peafowlsGuess I helped to spread the gene in peafowls very early and plentiful aswell.
My second "by chance" albinos were Nyalas and for all others those I was able to buy after the market pic was updated.
I am especially happy about my Elephants. Was lucky to find a young leucistic male with ok fertility in sales and breed them to the (normal) females I already had. And to my total suprise the frist calf born was also leucistic
Her mother was born in my zoo and she had the gene and I didnt even know xD I thought I would have to do some inbreeding before I would be able to get a pink babyfant myself^^
