Albi

Albi, also known as Snowy and Percy, was an urban legend of a ghost squirrel living in the graveyard of St. Martin's

Churchyard in Dorking, UK. It was later revealed to simply be an albino squirrel.

Description:
Albi was a clear white squirrel, almost always seen in St. Martin's graveyard, causing many to believe him to be a ghost.

History:
Albi, while initially inspiring the urban legend that he was a ghost, was beloved by the community in Dorking.

In October of 2009, Albi fell victim to roadkill. This sparked global outcry and an amazing amount of support in remembrance of the creature.

Popular Culture:
The story of Albi's death was featured on the news. Support for Albi was so great that the building of a statue and even the changing of the city emblem from a cockerel to a white squirrel were considered. Neither proposition was followed through on, however.
