Because albino animals are heterogeneous in the group, they are often rejected by the same kind. These factors make their survival more difficult.
The probability of appearance of albino slug is very rare, only one in a few million.
According to observations, there are more than 10 small slugs active in the wetland of Xuanmen Bay. This albino slug is not with other companions but foraging alone.

According to the data, the small grebes are generally brown, most are resident birds, and a few migrate. They are good at swimming and diving, and can also walk and fly.
However, due to physical structure problems, the walking is slow and awkward, and the flying ability is weak. When taking off on the water, it is necessary to wading on the water for a certain distance to fly.
