Oh but this is special! I’ve never seen one with partial melanism like this before! They’re usually all black or they’re the standard colouring with grey belly and brown back and tail!
Good enough of a photo IMO. The terrible part is that it may be a result of past injury because it seems more localized than vitiligo typically presents as.
Never seen one with vitiligo(?) before

Melanistic. Vitiligo would be splotches of albinism.
Oh, I’ve seen one of those! Couldn’t get a great picture though.
That’s just a tree cow

Yeah, I wondered if that might be the case when I took the picture, that tail was definitely injured at some point.
