This type of squirrel is extremely rare, some locations in which such animals can be found, are: Tennessee ( about 200 albino squirrels ), many people say that this is the “home” of white squirrels. Residents of Vancouver say that white squirrels were brought in 1869 by a “gypsy caravan”; another important white squirrel location is in Illinois also known as the “Home of the White Squirrels” because this is the place where many of the albino squirrels can be found.
Although, officially Illinois has the biggest population of white squirrels, Marionville claims to own the record for the largest population of squirrels ( between 300 and 600 ). An interesting fact regarding Marionville, regular gray squirrels are captured and kicked out so that only the albino squirrels remain.
In Exeter, Ontario there are a few white squirrels which aren’t albinos due to the fact that their eyes are dark.
