Sorry about that first incorrect answer, they have white rabbit zonker and white mink zonker but no white squirrel zonkers. Below will give you the choices in squirell zonkers.

Anyone know if there is such a thing as white squirrel zonker strips and if so where to obtain?

Hi ducksterman,

I assume you are looking for the white Squirrel Zonker strips so you can make some mini Zonker patterns. The mink strips work well for the small streamers OR you can take a rabbit Zonker strip and trim the fur tips off to shorten the profile in the water. Keep the trimmed tips to use as dubbing. When Gretchen & I trim rabbit Zonker strips to "manufacture" a mini Zonker strip we anchor one end of a rabbit strip in our vise jaws, pull the strip tight, fluff up the fur fiber and use a pair of scissor to trim the fiber shorter. Caution: It's really easy to cut off more "fur length" than intended; it's really difficult to put it back on the strip once it's clipped. Take care & ...

Brevard, NC also has white squirrels (which are not albinos). Same deal, mess with them at the cost of your freedom.
