The Blue Planet Aquarium in the United Kingdom was surprised by the birth of two white otter cubs.  The babies are Asian short-claw otters which usually have dark brown fur.  This pair is thought to have leucism, which causes the fur to grow without pigment, the substance which creates color in animals.
