The animal kingdom is so diverse that one can't hope to see all the species that exist on our planet's land and deep oceans. According to one estimate by Bored Panda, if you wanted to see all the 8 million plus species that inhabit our planet, it would take around eight years - and that too if you'd spend just 30 seconds on each photograph and do it non-stop, with no breaks in between. Mind boggling, right? And yet, thanks to the World Wide Web, we have been lucky enough to view some of the strangest, rarest animals of the world. 

In the eastern part of India, a farmer Basudev Mahapatra spotted a turtle which is yellow in colour and according to the experts, it is the product of albinism. 

When Basudev Mahapatra was working in his fields in the village of Sujanpur, in Odisha's Balasore district, he spotted the turtle. He handed over to forest officials.A senior wildlife officer said it is a rare spotting. "Most probably it was an albino. One such aberration was recorded by locals in Sindh few years back,"
