OMG!! I was going to post something about has anyone seen a black deer before prior to reading this topic. There is a button buck that has been on my acreage since he was a fawn......other deer do not seem to care for him much, and although one of this years early fawns.....he is almost black!!! His pelt is as dark as the pic. I have seen in my 46 years(for odd deer)....several piebalds, one true albino, and then this little guy that is unreal it seems he is so dark.......... I hope that he makes it to harvest time in several years!! No doubt that his daddy was one of the great seed bucks in this area. BTW, Awesome buck, and pic!
