The Associated Press reports that there are only around 100 white moose in Sweden. The animals are not albino, but grow white fur due to a generic mutation.
There are more than 400,000 of the more common breed of moose in Sweden, according to The Independent.
Last month, an extremely rare pale tiger in Southern India also went viral after it was photographed for the first time.
In June, a rare albino dolphin was spotted off the coast of California.
