I've never seen one, but if I did I would shoot it. That would be a fantastic trophy. I could see why someone wouldn't want to shoot one, but I think I would.

Cool pics to everyone that has posted some up.

Drop I did see her in your pic. She's at about 11 o'clock right?

If legal and I had enough property to have it stay around, not wander over to the neighbors and get killed I would rather see it run around my place for a few years and then once its much older I would then kill it! I think it would be awesome to have one running around! If I had the opportunity on public land to kill it, I would!

I have only seen one in the wild. It was on a buddys lease and i would see it on ocassion going down the road. They all decided not to kill it, but it ended up on other property and got killed any way. It is legal in Indiana.
Another friend years ago got a bad hit on one (a doe), we looked everywhere with no avail. We were scouting weeks later about 500 yards from there and i stumbled upon the remains of it []

I have seen approx. 6 in the wild and as noted it is illegal to kill them in IL.

I did kill a Piebald buck a few years ago

Here is a picture of a deer we saw several times last year. I would not say the deer was albino as it didnot seem to lack pigment, it just appeared white compared to all the other deer. Here in Texas I would say it would be legal game as long as it met all applicable requirements. This was a young deer and I believe pictures we got later in the year showed him to be a nub buck.

That is a strange looking one, isn't it?
