Rare White Deer

I used to deliver Pepsi to Argonne National Laboratories from time to time and they had white deer… really neat to see.

Those were fallow deer. I did a herd count there as a biology project when I was in college. They aren't all that rare, but aren't indigenous to the USA. Let us not confuse white deer with albino deer, which are totally white and have pink eyes.

Correct, they were not albino deer… that must have been a neat project to have worked on.

20 some years ago I had a whitetail doe raise 2 fawns behind my shop. She was completely white but had black eyes and nose. She was a piebald. The fawns were normal colored.

Use to see them all the time at Seneca Army depot in upstate NY.
