A Swedish researcher has captured an extremely rare white moose, which he has been looking for for three years
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/a-swedish-researcher-has-captured-an-extremely-rare-white-moose-which-he-has-been-looking-for-for-three-years.htmlSwedish researcher Hans Nilsson spent three years searching for a rare animal — a white moose. There are only 100 individuals in Sweden compared to 400 thousand well-known brown moose. Forest animals by nature should not be white. Their rare color is explained by a genetic mutation, so white moose are not albinos at all.

Nilsson posted the video on Facebook, and it has already gained one and a half million views.
Luck finally smiled on the researcher, and he was able to photograph a beautiful animal by a stream in Vermland.
In the video, the moose swims across the stream to eat leaves on the other side.
And then he turns his head and calmly looks at the person filming him.
"It's a wonderful feeling to be next to such a unique animal that people don't care about at all," the researcher told the Swedish radio station.
