these are not albino.

Rabbits, like rats and mice, have no true 'albino'. They have 'pink eyed white'. What this means is that their genetics point opposing coat patterns , so it opts for a 'blank'. Most often, people simply call them albino because they look like the albino of other species, but they often have dark spots on their skin, dark hairs on their tail, etc.

The bear has a black nose and black eyes, and therefore has some melanin, and is not a true albino.

Proof of the mice/rats/rabbits not being albino please.
There's such things are albino mice/rats/rabbits. Red eyes, pink paws, pink ears, etc.

also.
"While there is only one type of ocular albinism, there are at least five types of oculocutaneous albinism, one of which has several subtypes. Some are easily distinguished by appearance, but in most cases, genetic testing is the only way to be sure. Apart from HPS (see below) testing has no medical benefits.

The type with the usually least amount of pigment is Oculocutaneous albinism type 1 (OCA1) (Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) 203100). People with this type usually have very white skin, white hair and light blue eyes, however there are cases in which the eyes appear red or purple, depending on the amount of pigment present. OCA1 is caused by an alteration of the tyrosinase gene, and can occur in two variations. The first is OCA1A, and means that the organism cannot develop pigment at all. Vision usually ranges from 20/200 to 20/400. The second is OCA1b, which has several subtypes itself. Many individuals with OCA1b can tan and develop pigment. One subtype of OCA1b is called OCA1b TS (Temperature Sensitive), where the tyrosinase can only function below a certain temperature, which causes the body hair in cooler body regions to develop pigment (i.e. get darker). An equivalent mutation produces the coat pattern in Siamese cats.

The most common type of albinism is Oculocutaneous albinism type 2 (OCA2) (Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) 203200), which is caused by alterations of the P-gene. People with OCA2 generally have more pigment, and better vision than those with OCA1, but cannot tan like some with OCA1b. A little pigment can develop in freckles or moles. People with OCA2 usually have fair skin but not as white as OCA1, and light to golden or reddish blonde hair, and usually blue eyes. Affected people of African descent usually have a different phenotype (appearance): Yellow hair, rather white skin and blue, gray or hazel eyes.
Oculocutaneous albinism type 3 (OCA3) or Rufuous (Red) Albinism (Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) 203290) has only been partially researched and documented. Cases have been reported in Africa and New Guinea, affected individuals have red hair and reddish brown skin and blue or gray eyes.

HPS or Hermansky-Pudlak-Syndrome (Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) 203300) is not a type of OCA itself, but has similar features. HPS has a great range of degrees of pigmentation, from OCA1A-like to almost normal coloring. Vision usually ranges from 20/60 to 20/200. Apart from the hypopigmentation and impaired vision, people with HPS lack dense bodies in their blood platelets which are responsible for releasing clotting factors. For this reason, HPS patients bruise easily and have a hard time stopping bleeding once it begins. HPS has 7 known forms, each caused by a mutation in a different gene. HPS-1 and HPS-4 may also include pulmonary fibrosis, or scarring of lung tissue that prevents the necessary expansion and contraction during breathing. It is believed that this is due to a buildup of fatty ceroid in the lungs. Colitis, or inflammation in the large intestine, is another symptom of most types of HPS, which may cause blood in stool, diarrhea, and nausea.

Ocular albinism (Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) 300500) affects only the eyes. There are two types, One is X-Linked and the other is a Recessive Gene. Nonetheless, skin color can be slightly lighter than those of the rest of the family, or "normal". The eye color can vary greatly, in which case only examination of the retina can reveal OA1. "

Bump for adorable hedge! Is it a European? Its large legs and small eyes tell me it's probably not an African Pygmy like my Wedgie lil spikeballpufferkins.

No clue. Bump, anyhow.
