BABY badger Brumas is somewhat different to her peers, for rather than having the usual stripes around her face and neck she is completely white.
The orphaned badger was found wandering about on her own in Taplow by the RSPCA and taken to St Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Haddenham.
In spite of her unusual colouring, she isn't an albino her eyes are black, not red.
She is actually erythristic which means she has colouring different from the normal.
Les Stocker, founder of St Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital, said: "If she was an albino, she'd be a lot weaker than she is.
"Luckily she is a stroppy little madam.
"She has mixed in well with the other badgers.
"We will probably be releasing her back into the wild around the end of October, November time when she has put on a little more weight.
"We'll dig an artificial set and release her with a group."
Mr Stocker said it was the first time the hospital had taken in a badger like Brumas.
Staff had seen a brown and white badger before but were surprised when Brumas was brought to them.
"She is behaving like a normal badger, staying underground during the day and coming out at night so she should be fine," added Mr Stocker.
