Spotted this at IIT Madras a few weeks back. This is a leucistic Black buck, commonly mistaken for Albino.
Albino black bucks have pinkish eyes, but the eyes of this one are black. Leucism is a disorder which results in reduction of skin pigmentation. While albinism affects only melanin pigment, Leucism affects all pigments.
