A rare white moose has been spotted and if you wanna freak out, that's cool
Honestly: How common is it to find something rare in nature that isn't (pardon me science teachers) also kind of boring?
Thank god there are exceptions to the rule. Over the weekend, video of a white moose found in Sweden caught fire around the internet. The moose, discovered in Varmland, Sweden, appears to be just one of the 100 white moose that exist in the country.

Watch the moose take a brief stroll through a stream and walk out, with the type of grace and posture some of us have been craving our whole lives.
The moose is not albino, but instead appears to have a genetic mutation that turns its fur white.
Twitter responded appropriately -- with too many exclamation points and caps lock, unironic joy.
