You might have seen the Lucky White Squirrel Prints at The White Squirrel Cafe by Trinity Bellwoods Park (where the white squirrels live naturally). The White Squirrel prints are a limited edition set that documents the albino squirrel phenomenon in Toronto, documenting why it is so lucky to spot a white squirrel. The first print, a tree network diagram, illustrates the mix of genes it takes to create albino progeny from a pair of squirrels each carrying the recessive gene for albinism. The second, in real numbers, illustrates squirrel for squirrel the 1:20,000 odds that this would occur.
It is hard to get full sized photos of the posters that show all of the detail so I have included some close up images.
