Wales Teen Who Catches Moles In Yard Found Rare White One

The 17-year-old, who is studying agricultural mechanics at Coleg Sir Gar's Gelli Aur campus, has been catching moles for farmers for the past four years. He said this was the first time he had caught one of varying colour.

"I was expecting none or a black one, but then I found a white one, so I was a bit shocked," he said. "I had heard of white moles but I had never seen one."

"I've been catching moles for 15 years and I have never caught one — and I have caught thousands of moles," said Mr Alderton.

Of course, I have never had a mole infestation, so I think they are all cute.....but that one is extra cute.
