Albino Deer Fawnâ€
This was sent by a man in Rhinelander, Wisconsin
A very eventful day around here... A once in many lifetimes experience!
I saw 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 Momma deer around. Another car nearly hit it in front of me ...
Well, he is THE neatest thing any of us ever saw.
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 we're going to send him to a Rehab farm.
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. Here are a couple of pictures to show you.
He was snow white, pink eyes, ears, nose and hooves. Kids called him POWDER. He was SO small. That is my shoe lying beside him... WOW..how cool is that??
Pass this around, a lot of folks have never and will probably never see even another picture of an Albino deer fawn......

This was a bog pond and the water was dark due to tannic levels.... I was using four lb. test Stren-- That really tough stuff... he had red eyes and a bad attitude-- He even came after the lure again, but I pulled it away... Poor trout and smallmouth bass probably fell victim to the Albino Terminator! :)

I can imagine Specially if you fish trout like I do and use mayhap 6lb test line. Musta been a good fight and a thrill of a lifetime.
Did it have pink eyes?????
Bet the light had to of hurt it's eyes some. Amazed it would have been at the same depth depth as the trout. Though it would have been deeper. Or maybe cause it was white it had to swim above the thermocline
Ok just my weird way of thinking

That fish scared me damn near to death because I was fishing for panfish with my little trout rod and a berkley wiggler... The darn lure is so small, I'm not sure how that pike spotted it in the first place! :)

I hope he won't be either
Excited about seeing the pic of the Albino pike That really musta been something Amazing
Unfortunately if they have the same amount of deer as other places most likely got hit by a vehicle
Shame that
Glad you liked the pic

Wowie, That's a rare sight indeed, Wendy!
I once hooked an albino Northern Pike... Ghostly and mean, too!
I certainly released it but I've got a photo that I'll share one day! :)
Thank you for sharing that story! Wonder what happened to his Mama?
