A rare white albino fox have been spotted wandering around a car park.
The pale creature was filmed darting between cars near a housing estate in Angel, north London.
Resident Chimanski Pereira, 42, said he was amazed to find the animal lurking outside his window and initially thought it was a dog.
He said: ‘I could see a few normal foxes running around and then I saw what I thought was sure was a dog.
‘I thought it was funny that a dog was playing with some foxes and that’s when I realised.’
‘I was amazed – it’s not something you see every day.
‘I’ve read stories about albino foxes before so I knew instantly how special they are.’
While albino foxes are rare in Britain, they are not totally unheard of.
In 2012, an albino fox shocked farmer Roger Holmes who spotted the creature lapping up the sun in Bethersden, Kent.
Three years earlier videos of a white marble fox playing in the US went viral as its owner insisted the animals made perfect pets.
Two-month-old Rylai melted hearts in clips that showed him curled up in a ball wearing a diamante collar.
They are characterised by their thick, white fur during the winter which turns grey-brownish in the summer.
Able to withstand temperatures as low as minus 50°C, they have rounded bodies, short legs and small ears.
