Albino Dikdiks and Baboons!! etc…
Category: Uncategorized | Date: Jul 28 2008 | By: milgistrust
What is up in the north?.. or is it every where!!!.. In the last few weeks the scouts have reported seeing 2 white baboon, and then a squirrel, then several reports of white dikdiks and now a superb starling,, and a drongo with a white head! Is it the water, the vegetation or the weather up here?? I remember several years ago seeing a white Wildebeeste in the Mara… amoungst the millions!!.. Interesting…
I do apologise for the pictures of the last two blogs not getting posted… I don’t know what the problem is…We tried several times… I will be leaving for ’safari’ tomorrow to meet our visitors in Ngurnit on the 2nd August.. On the way I am going to meet up with Lesuuda, Milgis 3, our Cheetah.[ all 22 scouts represent an animal]as he has reported, that he has seen a wild dog den, with lots of Puppies…I’m very excited… Will be back with more news on the 7th August…
By the way I have a new puppie… Shes called Ndoto!!…

I Helen Douglas-Dufresne, have been doing walking camel safaris for the last 20 years in the Mathews-Ndoto region having witnessed the destruction of the Milgis ecosystem by the local communities who were unaware of its implications, either we did something or not- so the Milgis trust was born!

Aw, congratulations on your new puppy! I hope you can get photos of some of the albino creatures and figure out how to post ‘em. Good luck!

Hi there
they are probably leucistic rather than albino. leucism is a different form of colouration, have a look at http://www.wildlifeextra.com/go/news/leucism.html Let me know if you get photos as we would love to add them to the collection.
Cheers

HI Helen, hope you have better luck with your photos. Make sure your photos are less than 100kb. Paula
