An albino animal is an animal that is competently white. They also have red eyes. Albino animals are rare to see in zoos and the wild. Most albinos can't see, so the wild albinos usually die. Zoo kept albinos are rare because in breeding it is difficult to get an albino in the first place. As you see in the picture, two ostriches are completely white. Those are albino ostriches. But not every white animal you see is albino. It has to ave pink skin around the eye and a red eye. Just because you see a white dog or cat does not mean it is albino.
it is possible for albinism to affect all vertabrates, including humans
That is difficult to answer. If you wanted to know, there might be an answer on Google, but they could keep populating,so no one knows.
