Posted: 7/14/2005 1:28:41 PM THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT I received this via e-mail from the President of our local pistol club. This is something very, very rare. He didn't say if this came from friends of his, or if it is just one of those e-mail things that makes the rounds. Hopefully not a dupe. Story and pics-- This note and pictures from a friend of the person who found the deer A very eventful day around here... A once in many lifetimes experience! Mark seen this lil feller run out in front of a car, thought it was a lost baby goat. Stopped to get it, and WOW. A real Albino Whitetail Deer. Just hours old, but doing fine. No Moma deer around. Another car nearly hit it in front of Mark... Well,, he is THE neatest thing any of us ever seen. And such a 'freak of nature', that only 1 in more than a million are even born. He took his bottle of food, followed us around the house, doing great. So, we called the Zoo & Fossil Rim, who were both interested, but going to send him to a Rehab farm, at a vet that we have never gotten along with... So, one of Dads best friends is our Game Warden. Kinda reluctantly, but,, I called him and told him the deal. He came right over. of course... and assured me that he wouldn't take it to that vet, that he was going to 'go to higher levels' than that with him.. So, he is gone now. We got alot of pix, and something we will never see again probably, so it was very cool. Maybe he will make it in captivity somewhere and be appreciated. So rare... Sure wanted to keep him tho. but,, not the thing to do. And not LEGAL either ;( But, here are a couple of pix to show ya. He was snow white, pink eyes, ears, nose and hooves. Kids called him POWDER. He was SO small. That is my shoe laying beside him... WOW..how cool is that??

Posted: 7/14/2005 1:59:59 PM There is an old military base in Seneca NY. It was, for many years, walled off with a big fence. Within the fence generations of deer interbred, creating a LARGE number of white deer. These are NOT albinos (although the one in this post is). A member of my hunt club returned from a hunt there, and had a picture of about 8 very very nice bucks stacked in the pack of a pickup. If memory serves correctly something like 3 of them were white... For a few pics: Local tree-hugger bunny-lover PETA type link

Posted: 7/14/2005 2:59:56 PM Couple of years ago, there was an albino red tailed hawk lying dead on the side of the road. Someone had apparently shot him off the telephone wire with a .22 (and didn't even have the good sense to go pick him up for mounting). So get this: the next day the papers headlines were "LOCAL POLICE LAUNCH INVESTIGATION INTO SLAYING OF ALBINO HAWK" Let that baby grow up and you'd have an awesome trohpy for the wall. I wonder if the antlers will be white?

Occasionally you hear of one (mentioned above even) surviving to adulthood, so the does must be willing to nurse them. The coloration is not conducive to survival due to predators, to be sure. In many cases "abandoned" babies in the wild have mama out of sight but not "gone." It's almost always best to just leave them alone. As this little one was in the road, it's hard telling what was "best" though.
