A baby albino crow is now a permanent resident of Monika’s Wildlife Shelter in Surrey.

The male crow, about five weeks old, was turned in to the shelter Wednesday. Monika Tolksdorf, who runs the centre, says it’s not “a total rarity” to find a white crow, but that the bird won’t survive if released.

“Usually they die, because most of them go blind because they have no protection from the sun,” she says.

Tolksdorf says the crow was not injured when it arrived.

On average, one or two albino crows arrive at the shelter every year.
