The rare albino reindeer spotted in Sweden
A rare white reindeer has been spotted on the edge of a forest in Sweden,
Dailymail reveals. The animal was spotted by Teacher Siv Poijo who saw the gorgeous stag while holidaying in Mala, Sweden, as it tried to cross the road.
She said: 'In the pack there was only one white reindeer, it is not that often you see one.
'For the Sami people, the white reindeer have special significance - I think they bring luck and are considered holy.
'It just stopped at the side of the road and I managed to take a picture.'
Siv Poijo caught the rare animal on camera
White reindeer, which appear in the wilds of Finland, Norway and Sweden, are extremely rare, though they have been born in captivity elsewhere, including England.
In their northern homeland, they are seen by some as magical and a signal of good luck.
