Yesterday my terrier caught an
albino mole which was above the
surface in the middle of the day.
Location Eastleach Turville, Glos
It appeared to be in good health, ie
not thin, although covered with
fleas, which are easily visible on
such a pale coat.

I caught one last week on Friday 16 March
2007 in a garden near Uckfield in East
Sussex
I have previously caught 2 'apricot'
coloured moles in one garden, also near
Uckfield, in July 2004

I have caught 2 Albino moles in the
past 12 months on my own land (42
acres), I was advised by my friend,
who's late father owned the Land
many years ago had also caught one
there
Perhaps the moles here are of the
same blood line still? I am awaiting
the Taxidermist to finish stuffing
the 1st one I caught, it is taking
ages due to his high workload, I
will send you a photo ASAP.
All the best
