Albino Frogs

Albino frogs are a fairly common occurrence.

It is not uncommon for a recessive gene to be present in many different species of frogs, causing them to be born without normal pigmentation.  These frogs will have redish eyes and a white or pinkish coloring to their skin.  Like the eyes of human albinos, they tend to be highly sensitive to light.
