Not in my original universe;
A teacher on vacation spotted a rare albino reindeer along a road in Sweden.
Albino reindeer are seen in Norway, Sweden and Finland – albeit rarely.
A teacher on vacation in Sweden recently saw a very rare sight in the wild: an albino reindeer, standing right next to the road.
The image was captured by Siv Poijo, who was returning to her cottage when she saw a pack of reindeer, with the all-white creature standing among them, according to Caters News Agency.
"For the Sami people, the white reindeer have special significance – I think they bring luck and are considered holy," Poijo told the Daily Mail.
These rare creatures, which are the result of a genetic mutation, are found in Norway, Sweden and Finland, the Daily Mail also said. Earlier in the year, three albino deer were seen in Boulder Junction, Wisconsin, according to UPI.com; they are so rare that it's illegal to shoot white deer.
Below, you can see the full image captured by Poijo.
