Staff at the Yalta zoo, which bills itself as a 'fairy-tale park' on
Ukraine's Crimean coast, were expecting ordinary lion cubs from the
sand-colored mother lioness. But the cubs were born pure white, or albino.

More elusive than the African leopard, rarer than the
legendary snow leopard of the Himalayas, and as white as the polar bear
of Alaska, rumors of the existence of pure White Lions have existed in
the African oral tradition for centuries. While reports of White Lions first surfaced in the 1930s, scientists
were not able to officially document their existence until 1975. It is
not clear exactly when the White Lions re-emerged on our planet and where from still remains a
mystery, but the legend goes that the White Lions came to our planet for specific spiritual purposes. They are Africa's most sacred animals and considered to be "ancestral bringers of light": http://whitelions.org/
