Probably, if the bird community is not under threat, there are no predators, and there is plenty of food and territory, then there is no need to bully those who are different.
As I understand it, albinos do not thrive in the wild largely because their non-camouflaging coloration can attract predators

No, no one has ever heard of them. Theoretically they could exist, but they simply wouldn’t survive in the wild.
Анна, Agreed!
If they did exist, it would be extremely hard for such a one to survive.
We asked the manul scientists — they haven’t come across any like that 🤓
It would be interesting to see a manul like that, but we haven’t heard of one like that yet :)
If one like that is born in a zoo, nothing will ever threaten him. Except adoration and fame.
Not a manul, of course, but at the Gdańsk Zoo we met this unusual albino penguin!
Despite looking different from all the other penguins in the colony, his fellow penguins accepted him into their community 🙌🏻
Look how white he is! 🤍
