Not an Albino, but Close
Posted by DDH Staff
Photos of this white-tailed doe are making the rounds on the Internet this morning. This piebald was allegedly photographed on a roadside somewhere in Wisconsin. We have not confirmed the location, but it is a nice specimen. Like albinos, partially white deer (piebalds) are the result of genetic mutations. They are, in fact, inferior animals from a herd-health stanpoint and are often shunned by other deer.
